The swinging needs to be sinusoidal the way it is right now anyhow. It doesn't look like it but my eyes are bad.

To get them to "swing" I'd suggest making sure that the lighting effect is attached to the lamp itself, and then rotating it slightly. Perhaps -5 to 5 degrees from it's current position over the course of 1-2 seconds. I'd be totally down with you shooting me a mockup. I appreciate help whenever I can get it, especially from dev's that I look up to. And to be straight Bravo, I miss my weekly dosage of Lux gifs! Watching you and other dev's showcase how BYOND has evolved is actually what brought me back roughly 3 years ago. =) Edit: Also thanks for the clarification Darke and if you want a clearer shot or the dmi jtself then let me know Bravo. =) | |
Here's a quick little example of what I'm referring to.
Also I'm not doing a whole lot correctly here, but it's just an example so I didn't put too much effort into it. | |

That looks really fun Kozuma, you should try and get it on steam as a wave-survival game! A gamemode like that is planned, but it needs a lot more polishing before steam. | |
Well of course, but it's never too soon to start marketing the game though. Make a Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and start posting bi-daily updates.

I recommend picking a different font. It almost matches the art theme but it's not clear to read. I think it would be fine as long as everything on_screen is in caps. | |

For some odd fucking reason i saw Injected instead of Infected kek

Player Ops Map Editor: You should look into using an auto tiler for your in game map editor. You would however need to choose one that does not join it's tiles on run time... ..There's at least 3 or 4 libraries to choose from though so perhaps there's hope! :) What I use: http://www.byond.com/developer/Foomer/13TileAutojoining The most recent auto tiler(99.9% sure it combines on run time though): http://www.byond.com/developer/Foomer/13TileAutojoining | |
A mockup of what I think might look like a decent UI.

That UI looks super spiffy Goober! I'm looking forward to seeing it in action man!
I took Bravo1's advice and finally got around to making some lights flicker. I also made lights that aren't in pairs run a tidbit differently so every light isn't in unisect. I still have yet to incorporate the nice library he cooked up, but I'll post the results when I add it in. I honestly LOVE the idea of having not only having lights that sway back and fourth but also lights that you can HIT and cause their sway velocity to skyrocket then decrease. Also, fyi, I noticed that my gifs are running at 15ish fps which is half of the actual game's FPS. In the future, I'll try and find ways to capture footage with higher framerates. =) Main lobby  Halls  | |
I'm going to begin showcasing characters over the next few weeks through short gifs and write ups. There are eleven in total so stay tuned :)

To get that to work properly you'll want to use Turn() on the matrix and apply it as the lamp's transform. In this case though, you'll need to make sure that the center of the matrix is positioned at or near the base of the lamp itself, so that it swings in a believable manner.
I can't see the light themselves very well in your gifs, so I don't know exactly what kind of icon you're working with exactly, but I can make a mockup example if you'd like to see what I mean.
