Simple...

-Add a Trigger to the place where you should move to turn the light on.

-Add a TriggerLight (Actor-Light-Triggerlight) to the place of the lamp or sth. (Instead of using a normal light...)

-Set the Event of the Triggeer to the Tag you specifiy for the Triggerlight

-Set the light's Object-Initialstate to Triggertoggle (for turning on and off) or TriggerturnsOn (for turning on only) or TriggerTurnsOff (for lights that could only be switched off)

-Set all of the lights properties as you would do when using a Normal light.

You just use a mover, and put a event tag on it that triggers the light....

when i move onto the trigger , the light flickers on, and off , (in like a millisecond) , do i need to change so kinfd of collision radius?

could it be "change time" in light properties?

Did you set the light to TriggerToggle...
If so then set the trigger a higher ReTrigger delay.
