Is it possible to make an object glow when frobbed and stop glowing when frobbed again?
I know you can make it a light source, but that's not what in going for. Think more along the lines of an elevator button that glows when an elevator has been called. I looked through the litemush objects properties but came up empty. Would appreciate any help!
Thanks!

Yes.
Would you like to know how?
1. you need an object which was created with ILLUM enabled when the .bin was generated.
2. You need NVScripts for the NVGlowTrap which will allow you to dynamically adjust both Renderer->Self Illumination and its object's dynamic light over time. You also need NVFrobToggle so that the first frob will send a TurnOn and the next one will send a TurnOff.
The exact details is left as an exercise for you to work on.

Thanks Larry! I wasn't able to figure out how to do this, but I found a close approximation :)
