Syntax

void SplitLightNodes()

Remarks

Split our lights into a parent that is a simple actor and a child light actor. This because VRED has the convention that lights shoot toward -Z, while they shoot toward +X in Unreal. Since we also have Transform variants around, we can't just rotate the node and its children once: We need another node
