hi!
i have notice in my sprite node that there is a texture field and a normal map field
if i put a normal map along with a texture wold it have an impact on the texture
Normal maps are used for lighting in 2D games. If you add a normal map and a light the texture will appear to have depth.
so how to add a light to the project
is there is a node for it or just a sprite node
if you can lead me into a tuto that will be better

The Sprite uses the Normal Map to add extra information for the Light2D to work with.
A Light2D tho uses a Texture to cast light. Just try it out! The best way of gettings strted is to use a gradient circle with a transparent background as the lights texture.
