2 LightNodes

My problem is that I have 2 LightNodes and both of them cast a shadow. But the Light effect doesn't work if one is in the Shadow of the other. How can I fix that issue?

Well I found out, that light decay in spritekit is not really realistic as cumulative lighting effects. Realistic effects are very computing intensive (realistic energy model is complex).

Are you working with a framework (ARKit ?) ?


The problem is not a swift problem, so you're probably not in the best forum.

I believe this post also describes the same limitation. I filed a bug report awhile back requesting support for improved rendering of multiple lights and shadows, so if you feel this feature is important you could file a dupe (my report is number 36511897). Although a physically-based energy model for SpriteKit would probably be really cool, I think the lighting could be improved without having to go all in on that. 😀
