Summary

I'm making a short horror game where the main mechanic is that the monsters only appear if your flashlight is on them. You can see the tiles in the darkness, but not the monsters. I'm using the Khas Awesome Light Effects script, which creates flashlight beams using images, and darkness by tinting the screen. The monsters are events with a Random movement path.  I would absolutely love a script that makes the events transparent when not touching the flashlight beam.

Here are a couple mock-ups:

I would preferably like it to be like this, where only parts of the event show up when touching the light, but I understand that might not be possible, or it might be too hard.

Something like this where the entire event is visible when touching the light would also work very well.


I would also like the events to be visible when touching the other light effects included in the Khas Lighting script. 


If making it transparent when in the tinted areas is possible, that would also work very well.


Thank you so much, a script for this would be very appreciated! If you have any questions or if you need clarification about something, please ask!
