OmniLight
=========

**Inherits:** :ref:`Light<class_Light>` **<** :ref:`VisualInstance<class_VisualInstance>` **<** :ref:`Spatial<class_Spatial>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Omnidirectional light, such as a light bulb or a candle.

Description
-----------

An Omnidirectional light is a type of :ref:`Light<class_Light>` that emits light in all directions. The light is attenuated by distance and this attenuation can be configured by changing its energy, radius, and attenuation parameters.

Enumerations

.. _enum_OmniLight_ShadowMode:

.. _class_OmniLight_constant_SHADOW_DUAL_PARABOLOID:

.. _class_OmniLight_constant_SHADOW_CUBE:

enum **ShadowMode**:

- **SHADOW_DUAL_PARABOLOID** = **0** --- Shadows are rendered to a dual-paraboloid texture. Faster than :ref:`SHADOW_CUBE<class_OmniLight_constant_SHADOW_CUBE>`, but lower-quality.

- **SHADOW_CUBE** = **1** --- Shadows are rendered to a cubemap. Slower than :ref:`SHADOW_DUAL_PARABOLOID<class_OmniLight_constant_SHADOW_DUAL_PARABOLOID>`, but higher-quality.
