So sorry, I meant ray CASTER. :-)

Hmm... I was just thinking. Could this code be modified into a ray tracer? :O

Hi!
This demo is fabulous! I'm not sure how it works, and I have tried several times to make sense of it. Can anyone give me the theory? Thanks.

very cool game to play around with
I made + and - to resize the circle
your code is buggy though: http://img301.imageshack.us/my.php?image=abuggabugabuce0.gif

Answer:

Naah...I wouldn't say it's a bug ;-) You just have to change some more of the code to be able to set a larger circle. Not just the size of the light.
