GetOne returns where in a list it found a match of the thing you are
looking for - or zero if it doesn't find it. So, here's what you do.
Set up your list in a beginSprite handler, but save it in a property
variable. Then, where you are doing your check, refer to this list:
property pListOfNames -- saves the list of things to look for
on beginSprite me
-- Assign this only once!
-- Brackets work just fine, no need for the "list" function
pListOfNames = ["cone01", "ROOKPLY1R", "ROOKPLY1L", "ROOKPLY2R",
"ROOKPLY2L"]
end
on exitaction me, whichmodel
where = getOne(pListOfNames, whichmodel.name)
if where > 0 then -- found it in the list
scene.model(whichmodel.name).shader.emissive = rgb(0,0,0)
cursor -1
end if
end
