clearLights() Function

• Introduced in version 1.3b48

Turns off all of the light sources for the Current Token.

Usage

clearLights()
clearLights(tokenRef)
clearLights(tokenRef, mapname)

Parameters

tokenRef - Either the token id or Token Name of the token for which to turn off all light sources, defaults to the Current Token.
Note: This parameter can only be used in a Trusted Macro.
mapname - The name of the map to find the token. Defaults to the current map.

Token IDs are unique, but Token Names can be duplicated. Using Token Name when more than one token has the same name can produce unexpected results.

Examples

To turn off all of the light sources for the current token.

[h: clearLights()]

To turn off all the lights sources on the map you could run the following script, note you will have to be the GM or run it as part of a trusted macro.

Ok Kids lights out!
[h,foreach(tok, getTokens()), code: { [token(tok): clearLights()]}]

Version Changes

1.5.4 - Added id and mapname parameter options.
