Before Arma 3 v1.92 use setHit instead:
_lamp = nearestObject [player, "Lamps_base_F"]; _lamp setHit ["light_1_hitpoint", 0.97]; // off _lamp setHit ["light_1_hitpoint", 0]; // on
Switch all lights off in the 500 radius of player:
private _lamps = nearestObjects [player, ["Lamps_base_F", "PowerLines_base_F", "PowerLines_Small_base_F"], 500]; { for "_i" from 0 to (count getAllHitPointsDamage _x -1) do { _x setHitIndex [_i, 0.97]; }; } forEach _lamps;
