I wasn't aware that it was still possible. Has it been being used in places at all?
I just made a demo that worked perfectly fine and I am surprised. Ought I be, or am I just really out of the loop?

O.O Are you sure you're not testing it in solo mode or something? A lot of people have been asking and searching for this, but I've never seen someone who said they found it.

You can see the bricks changing color in sections...

I have decided to invent an obfuscation software and test it with the release of an API for local-lighting, so give me a few days.

True those are parts, but those aren't the parts that the castle is made out of. I never said it was good.

That won't work for fog, decals, etc. Imitation is..
Well, I have interesting ideas to make it all but impossible to comprehend the code, so, that will be fun.

I spent 3 minutes doing that-just because oxcool1 gave me an idea. And I coded it, I know exactly how it functions-limitations are endless. It was just a concept.

Nope!

It's done by using the Changed event on both the server and the client to revert a changed property to its preferred value. Example:

Script:
local Lighting = Game.Lighting
Lighting.Changed:connect(function()
Lighting.TimeOfDay = "12:00:00"
end)


LocalScript:
local isDay = true
local TimeOfDay = "12:00:00"

local Lighting = Game.Lighting
Lighting.Changed:connect(function()
Lighting.TimeOfDay = TimeOfDay
end)

while true do
isDay = not isDay
TimeOfDay = isDay and "12:00:00" or "00:00:00"
Lighting.TimeOfDay = TimeOfDay
wait(1)
end


Next time, be sure to tell it to us straight.
