I have my streetlights turned on via this bit of scar code in my maps .scar file 

function OnInit()

	EGroup_SetAnimatorState(eg_streetlights, "Light", "On")

end



Scar_AddInit(OnInit)


Is there anyway to turn this off at a specific time? Either via action markers, or any bits of scar coding. I noticed there was a commander to clear entity groups, and I thought that might work, but I don't know how to implement it at a specific time.

You can do it via transitions, and they have a timer for transitions entirely. This used to be the work around to have a 1 second transition at the start of a match to turn on lights.

So you can do it this way and set a timer.

However I remember this being an extremely buggy and water-downed version of what was available in vcoh.

I have transitions set up to go from just before dawn to midday, and the lights already turn off in worldbuilder when I run the preview of the transitions. So I don't really think the all of the transition menu is working. Unless you can show me a map where its working, then I'll go look there

That's what I meant by "extremely buggy water-downed version".

It could be any multitude of things they haven't fixed. Like variable states, or water, ect;

Other than what I suggested above I don't know exactly what would work besides some scar shenanigans.
