While reading through alot of the older posts in this forum, I've seen several people ask whether you can make it possible to turn off lights with a switch, for a "turn off power" type objective.
Now, while I realize this in itself is impossible, I think I may have a suggestion
Realize that this is untested and I can't use logic for crap, so this may not work:
Instead of a "turn off power" have something more like, "turn off central bases power" . The way one would make use of it is like so: Design the level up to the point where you want the switch to turn off the lights to be. In that same room, have a keycard locked door. Beyond that door would be the rest of the base, except with dark lighting, simulating a lack of power.
Upon activation of the switch the keycard for the locked door would appear and the objective would be complete. Unlock the door to the "central base" using your new keycard, and voila, no power!
Once again, if this wouldn't work, sorry. If anyone wants to test it out, go ahead, just post your results as I'm curious to know ^_^!
