I think it's a great idea. It will be difficult though and make the server lag a little more than usual.

Unless the server is hosted on a dial up connection, dynamic lights wasn't supposed to lag the server, it's different from stuff like chickens and physics props

Good point but a poll of some sort should be made, not all the players will be happy with the new change. It's worth a try. I feel like this would be great overall to be a random variable on the maps. Maybe they can be switched on or off, or plain blown out. Like on office with the garage door i'm sure something similar can be worked out switch wise.

It's a nice feature but I don't know how it's going to be for competitive. Like people hiding in the darkness and they removed both flashlight and night vision googles

....

would be fun but i see camping and the whole darkness thing being a problem

Can be done, but it will affect the look of the lighting, and ♥♥♥♥ up optimisation. To be able to shoot out the lights, you need to name the lights, so they can be called on when triggered to be shut off. If he were to do this to most/all of the lights in the map, not only would the file size be MUCH larger(talking 40 or more MB), optimisation would suck nuts. It adds a whole page per light in the BSP file. Sorry to say, but it's not worth it.

Also there is a hard coded limit of named lights, if the limit is exceeded, ♥♥♥♥ happens to the lighting
Edit: looks like you don't know nothing about mapping and about optimization, dynamic lights doesn't lag, unless you are running the game on a potato

Lets see if yew can nigjadepfucze

ermmm its actually really easy to do it just make the lights parrent a destroyable block and once the block is destroyed the light is destroyed...

I think it's a great idea

good
