light decay like on MAX

[JasonA]

you can create a custom decay rate that based on distance by selecting the light and then opening the Light Effects rollout. In there you'll see a buttom called Intensity Curve. click it and it'll create an animation curve that is intensity vs distance. It always (by default) creates 8 key handles on the curve, usually I just delete all but two or three and set them the way I want for my given situation. And finally, its easier to do this tweaking on an animation graph than it is by using the little spreadsheet thingy
