Non-light-blocking movement barriers!!

How is this not a thing? What? What is the problem? Solve this. It should take you 20 minutes and a couple of bong rips.
Try Door Knocker by Scott C. Using this API script you can set windows which are walls that light goes through.

Rabulias, that link goes to a discussion about 1-sided Dynamic lighting, not what I am asking for. I want a way to prevent PCs from moving through a barrier, but still allow them to see through it. I don't think those are the same. Is there a thread that addresses the thing I am talking about? Maybe you just mislinked?
You can set the page to block movement with the dynamic lighting lines but keep UDL and LDL off (ie not use Dynamic lighting). But it's all or nothing so if you want something like windows that block movement but not sight in walls that block everything, that cannot be done.
Hey Doug, I didn't really understand what you meant. I can use the lines to block movement and not light, but only if i don't want to use Dynamic Lighting on my map? Sadly, that's not going to solve my problem, as I use DL a lot. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
You can just draw ovals.&nbsp; Those do what you want. But that really seems like more of a bug or performance conceit that an actual intended feature.

The title is a bit misleading, but that thread has become a place for many related dynamic lighting (DL) suggestions, including DL lines that block movement but do not block vision. If you read through the thread you will see it brought up a number of times, and is probably the best place to vote for and talk about it.
