:For static geometry, they cost the same as a regular light. (If named, they cost the same as a regular named light.) I don't know about dynamically-lit objects (eg, dynamic props, physics props, and NPCs), but going by my recollection of the math involved, I suspect that the cost would be of the same time complexity as for a regular light. —'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 09:24, 26 Sep 2005 (PDT) | |||

- For static geometry, they cost the same as a regular light. (If named, they cost the same as a regular named light.) I don't know about dynamically-lit objects (eg, dynamic props, physics props, and NPCs), but going by my recollection of the math involved, I suspect that the cost would be of the same time complexity as for a regular light. —Maven (talk) 09:24, 26 Sep 2005 (PDT)
