Which lighting property controls how far a light travels in the scene?

• A. Spot Angle
• B. Mode
• C. Range
• D. Color

Answer: (C)

Range controls how far the light can influence objects in the scene. For point and spot lights, increasing Range expands the distance over which surfaces receive illumination and the light’s intensity typically fades with distance within that radius; decreasing Range narrows the illuminated area. Beyond this distance, the light contributes nothing. The other properties don’t govern distance: Spot Angle determines the cone width of a spotlight, Mode selects whether lighting is real-time, baked, or mixed, and Color changes the light’s color. Note that directional lights aren’t limited by range, since they simulate light from an infinite distance.
