Rather than duplicating your activator, you can place only one activator and then place an xmarker or any other object of your choice (even one of your lights). Parent your activator to the xmarker and modify the activator script to only enable/disable its parent. In the next section, you will need to parent all of your lights to the xmarker rather than the switch. There is no real advantage to either method, it's up to your personal preference. | |||
