I would just like to know if there is any snippet or routine which calculates the level of light at a position in 3D space, and if not would it be possible to make?

- Calculate the distance between you nad the light.

- If it's within the light range then you're illumintaed.

- Then calculate the percentage of light (if you were 50 units away fro mthe light with a range of 1000 then it'd be 5%)

There you are
