Rolling through the dark level of Mining Collective, I thought it would be an interesting gameplay element to be able to shoot out the lights and change the lighting. There are plenty of lighting towers which look fragile and do nothing when shot upon.

Remember the old movies where the hero shot out the search light and then moved in?

I understand you would need to change static lights to dynamic lights and this could lead to increased performance demands. It might be interesting to experiment with. And it would make less demands on GPU usage on the smaller maps.

I am a game programmer myself, and I have found this as a simple feature to implement to add game-play to shooters.

I know you can shoot out many of the lights with projectile weapons such as ACS and PPCS. Not sure about mining in particular.
