I get this really odd idea that you can do it by making the brush func_wall with a "minlight" value set, but I can't find any solid evidence to back that up. Idk, try it.

I think if you have some light value set, it might work... though it could slow down the compile time.

What, exactly, are you trying to do?

Set the value to 10 or 20, or else here's another idea. Make a func_train entity and make it bright, and locate it somewhere else on the map and have a path_corner that it will go to in the game. Remember to always have something solid behind an entity wall to avoid leaks.

How much lag would that cause? That's actually a brilliant idea.
