I recommend always leave colour intensity at 1. This number looks perfect in game.
Room
1. Ambient light. This ambient light will light the level but not the characters.
Right-click on "New Room" in top-left list > Insert > New Light anywhere in the room. Raise it up off the floor a little (e.g. Z = 2). In Object Inspector > "Light Type" Ambient - Baked > Colour 1,1,0.86
2. Character lights. You need them to light your characters. Copy and paste previous light or make a new one.
In Object Inspector > "Light Type" Point - Static > Affects Characters TRUE > Affects Level FALSE > Colour 0.70,0.70,0.65 > Point Radius 10000.Copy and paste until you have 3 static character lights. Arrange the character lights in a circle outside all of the rooms to make the characters be lighted from each side. NOTE: Don't make more than 3 character lights- there will be problems.
3. Additional lights. Static or animated for tourches, fireplaces etc where necessary or wanted.
4. Light Probe. "New Room" in top-left list > Insert > New Light Probe. Position doesn't matter at all. NOTE:Light Probe is final part in lightning your room. If you deside to change something in any of previous lights you have to create new light probe.
