LightSourceclass
objects.t[5943], en_us.t[3584]
An item that can provide light.
Any Thing can provide light, but this class should be used for objects that explicitly serve as light sources from the player’s perspective. Objects of this class display a “providing light” status message in inventory listings, and can be turned on and off via the isLit property.

Properties
adjective
Allow ‘lit’ and ‘unlit’ as adjectives - but even though we define these as our adjectives in the dictionary, we’ll only accept the one appropriate for our current state, thanks to our state objects.
allStatesOVERRIDDEN
get our set of possible states
brightnessOff
no description available
brightnessOn
the brightness that the object has when it is on and off
distinguishersOVERRIDDEN
We can distinguish light sources according to their isLit status. Give the lit/unlit distinction higher priority than the normal ownership/containment distinction.
getStateOVERRIDDEN
get our current state: lit or unlit
isLit
is the light source currently turned on?
nameLit
provide lit/unlit names for litUnlitDistinguisher
pluralNameLit
no description available
theNameLit
if this is a mass noun or a plural name, just use the name with lit/unlit; otherwise, add “a”
Methods
aNameLit ( )
no description available
brightness ( )
return the appropriate on/off brightness, depending on whether or not we’re currently lit
makeLit (lit)
Turn the light source on or off. Note that we don’t have to make any special check for a change to the light level, because the main action handler always checks for a change in light/dark status over the course of the turn.
