The Directional Light casts parallel light rays across your entire scene, simulating a distant light source like the sun or moon. Unlike Point and Spot Lights which have a specific position, Directional Lights affect everything in the scene uniformly from a given angle. They're perfect for establishing overall lighting direction and creating consistent shadows.
Directional Light creating sun-like illumination
Properties
Intensity
Controls the brightness of the light (0–500). This affects the overall illumination level of your scene. Higher values create brighter, more prominent lighting with stronger shadows.
Color
Sets the color of the light. Warm oranges and yellows simulate sunrise/sunset, cool whites work for midday sun, and blues create moonlight effects.
