Light can be created with command createVehicleLocal with special vehicle class "#lightpoint"
for example:
_light = "#lightpoint" createVehicleLocal pos; _light setLightBrightness 1.0; _light setLightAmbient [0.0, 1.0, 0.0]; _light setLightColor [0.0, 1.0, 0.0]; _light lightAttachObject [_object, [0,0,0]];

To clarify:
  • setLightAmbient - Terrain and surrounding objects are bathed in this colour.
  • setLightColor - Controls the "haze" seen around the lightsource (ex flares).

1. In Arma 3 ver 1.14 setLightColor will also change the color of the flare when setLightUseFlare, setLightFlareSize and setLightFlareMaxDistance were used on the same light source. For example:
_light setLightUseFlare true; _light setLightFlareSize 2; _light setLightFlareMaxDistance 60; _light setLightColor [1, 1, 1];

2. When both setLightAmbient and setLightColor are [0,0,0], there won’t be any visual presentation on the light source.
