I'm not entirely sure what you are on about there. But there is Ambient lighting, which can be modified via the build game dialog or with the ambience commands in a script.

Here is a step by step way to change it. Firstly Bring up the Build game Dialog

Then make sure you are on the Game Project Settings Tab
Click the new button at the top right of this section.
Type your game name in the Create A New Project box and click ok.

Next Click on the Level Settings Tab
Click Edit button to the right of the Global Script text box.
This will bring up the Setup Wizard.
In this setup wizard Scroll down till you see Ambience Level Change this to a low number, but make sure you click on another box afterwards (Say Fog Blue) otherwise it will not update the Ambience Level.

Next click Ok, then click ok in the Game Dialog box.

Click on test game and the ambience should be set to that level. Try playing with the ambience figures till you get the effect you want.

Always create a new game profile before adjusting so the settings do not affect any future games you create from new.

You can use "," and ." to change ambient light in a game. Works great.

When you run a test game from the editor or a compiled game, use the comma key "," to lower ambient light and the period key "." to raise it. Try it...it works while you're in the game.

Take a look at the example picture I included. First, you set the Ambient level, then click on any other place. Then and only then click OK.

Notice I set mine to 10. If you make it completly dark, it really is hard to see anything. By the way, the comma and period keys still work after you set the light.
