Description

When a mission is loaded after the game launch, some light sources are missing/not rendered.

In the attached repro mission, Agia Marina is dark and the Marid's headlight don't work. In the "Night" showcase mission the lighthouse doesn't light up the environment, while a truck placed close to the insertion point has visible headlights.
Load any mission a 2nd time and everything works properly. {F20633}

Thank god that I found this!!! I thought it was my hardware lol
I went to the southern lighthouse in one of my night missions and it was completely switched off. :-s

I tried reloading the mission and it does work the second time like you said.

By the way this is happening in the normal BETA build for me.
