That is, can I use just the lighting effects with the radii and different things only on events without darkening the whole screen? Thanks!

most lightning plugin need at least an abient color, but it doesn't need to be pitch black, for example,
if light is 0 0 0 0, flashlight dont work, but if you change it to 0 0 0 1 or 1 1 1 1 on lowest, it works.

or you need to see if you can tweak a bit so you dont need to do that or a tiny addon to avoid it.

I am confused as to how I would make those changes.
I only want light around certain events (for example, I have a wall light doodad, and I want to put a circular light around it).
I only, for most cases, want the light around the player to be in caves. Not in a normal town.
How do I make that black overlay essentially non-existent, but instead only use those circles of light for certain maps?
I hope this question is clear.

I dont use Terrax because of compability issues on many plugins, specially on 1.6.1, when lower at 1.5.2 (most stable)
for terrax has none to low issues.

So far I know, you can do this in the plugin settings and true plugin command or whenever the plugin is enabled.

You said you use also Light Doodad which means you use YEP_GridFreeDoodas plugin.
Im not really sure if they can work together because I dont use that one.

But I would recommend to search teh basics on teh TerraxLightning plugin as well for reading the helpfile.
This might be alot and troubling, but for some cases, it is needed to understand the plugin and how they work.

Or you need to wait for someone that use TerraxLightning that explain how to work around it in the way you want it.

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
