I've just started lighting my hollow ship (Which managed to get extremely dark) and I'm finding I'd like the ability to turn the lights off sometimes.
I understand that this is a purely cosmetic preference - or a way to go completely dark and therefore have a better chance of 'hiding' from others, but how difficult would it be to trigger a toggle on/off lightswitch by walking through a certain area (Say a doorway), and/or a manual force-on-off switch that would work pretty much the same way weapon systems and salvage systems work, attach all necessary lights to the specific switch-block and have it control them all?
Perhaps have a way to connect the lights to multiple switches, so you could, in theory, have two switches - one for the specific room, and one for the entire ship.
