Light child activated when blue lights are on

[TACRfan]

How would I make a child of a light appear on the roof of a vehicle only when blue lights have been activated

I think...

 

Add the child and name it, and then in the command file for the flashing lights make it so that if bluelights activated = yes, then the child is shown. (I would be more specific, but I dont have the resources on me to look it up)

When turning the light on you'd need something like 'v.SetChildEnabled("MagneticLight", true);' and turning off ''v.SetChildEnabled("MagneticLight", false);'

If you can't work it out I can give it a try and see if it works.

Ill give it a go, im pretty dumb when it comes to scripting though

Something like this would have to be utilized in conjunction with the EnableBlueLights code to get desired function.

The problem is, Em4 has a keyboard shortcut for disabling lights. It is Shift+B on the keyboard. When you press this keyboard shortcut, the childObject will not be hidden or shown because the lights script wont be called.
