Hi Tracers!
For the illumination of spaceship corridors, I want to arrange some
visible area lights.
But every time I try to use area_light in combination with looks_like,
the object in look_like is strangely cut...
See you in Khyberspace!

Yes, meanwhile I found it out on my own... obviously the object coordinates in
a looks_like object are RELATIVE to the light_source position!
And then there is the problem of light_sources (with looks_like) within a
CSG... I noticed that in this case, the light_source is pretty well visible,
but the surroundings are not illuminated at all!
Perhaps I find a solution during the next hours... watch out! ;-)
See you in Khyberspace!
