Traffic light sensor

This element is a sensor layout used to detect traffic lights and access their states (red, green...) with relative position on the Scene2D. In Edit mode, the detection field is represented by dotted lines. Unlike the polysensor, this sensor is not generic and is meant for traffic light detection only. However, when detecting traffic lights, you will also be able to access any of the following parameter : traffic light color, distance on the X and Y axis of the car to the traffic light (see detected traffic light parameters).

Is an equipment	✔️
Can have equipment	❌

This element must be used with 2D scene context.
