Why is the vehicle light not automatically switched on in tunnels (even if there is enough light there)?

So I tried to use a MT trigger to switch on the light. This works fine.
However, in the MT editor, in the preview of the vehicle light (there is a small arrow) the light goes off in the middle of the tunnel, and on again at the exit when I place a new trigger block there
And during the validation or racing the track, the light does not go off after the exit of the tunnel,
regardless if I put a new trigger block there, or if I use a long trigger block along the tunnel, or if I use two clips with individual trigger blocks for vehicle light.

Does anybody knows how to switch off the light correctly?

I have the same problem. An empty tirgger doesn't stop the vehicle light. And setting the time on a few seconds and disabling 'keep playing' doesn't help. The lights stay on the entire track.

cars with lights on look cooler anyways

Hi all, been away a while and not sure where we're up to with versions and all that.
I'm back and just bought Valley. First I must say very good job but I do have a problem.
Before I go into my problem I first must say there must have been an update at some point and we now have a light cone when we have our settings set low, great update, now I can see where I am going in the dark but now onto my problem.
As I am very big on using mediatracker (still no small triggers I see but I wont go there for now) I have found a problem with vehiclelights clip. If I use it to turn lights off in night mood they don't turn off and if I use it to turn lights on in day mood they come on but with no light cone so can't see where you're going

merged topics, as it was already partially reported.
Thanks for the addition with the day mood

Thanks mate

By the way I found this not to be just a bug in valley, it's the same in canyon.

OK, I have renamed the topic title accordingly (any TrackMania game - ok except Stadium, if it gets light one day )

Same here (bump)

The funny thing is that when you preview the clipgroup, it seems to work all fine

yeah

Confirmed , Valley and Canyon, MT lights on do not time out or get turned off by another MT trigger
