Here is my arena before I tried to add red IO towers in the distance:

Here is the same scene without the light sources, the arena floor, or the
arena walls, however I've added some cones filled witg red media that look
a little like IO towers.  Note you can still see the edges of the cones but
you have to look for them:

Now here is the exact same scene with this piece of code added:

  light_group {
   light_source {Lights}
    object {GameGrid (520,520,2) translate <2,0,2> rotate 90*y}
    object {Arena}
    global_lights off
  }

Granted this is my first time I've used light groups.

Looks like the game grid and the arena don't even see the lights yet they
still mess up the IO towers in the backgroud.  I have no idea what's going
on here.

Help,
Carl
