THIS INFORMATION IS NOW INVALID.
DUE TO A RECENT UPDATE, YOU NO LONGER NEED TO USE NEGATIVE INPUTS TO MAKE A LANDING LIGHT.
THIS LANDING LIGHT NO LONGER WORKS.
NEGATIVE INPUTS STILL WORK THOUGH! :)
So here's a landing light. Most landing lights you see on the SP website light up when the gear is retracted, which isn't how they are supposed to work. Something that isn't known by all XML modders is that putting a dash in front of an input name (ex: -LandingGear) inverts the input. Note that it is scaled to look better on a large aircraft.

Yo not going to lie I did this on accident I had no idea that this was such a big thing I have been way out of the loop as life has such a good way of kicking you in the boys
Man, this gave me a LOT of points. It's really sad to see it stop working.

I was originally going through the forums to find out how to make a landing light when a comment by @EternalDarkness caught my eye. In that comment was the original information. Probably should have credited earlier, but I did now.
u can also make a Morse code message using this part through XML modification. 0.33, 1, and 2.33 Method.
@aghasttable267 look
oh thanks..!
Sweet!
Well done for completely defying my limited xml knowledge @aghasttable267
@EliteArsenals24 Probably.
I knew it :3 used it in sone Creations which still arent finished 😂
I've discorver something from you everybody should know this
Can it work on negative AGs like (-Activate1)
I'm so surprised about that even platinum players didn't know this
That’s very good of you to share this - definitely be using this on iOS (and crediting you of course!)
Negative inputs... great, i can now do more complicated systems with this knologe.
this witchcraft deserves a spotlight
woahhhhhh negative inputs?
i did not know about this
it couldve made by firetruck a lot cooler
Hmm, knew about -LandingGear but didn't know that you could put the - in front of any input.
