Linear Signals Controller

Description
Alternates signals in a linear manner by controlling named groups of interior lights in a sequence by turning a light off and turning the next one on.
This script is useful for effects such as landing strips or flashing lightbars.

To use name your interior lights anything you want (this will be used to group the lights) followed by, without quotes, "Signal #" and a number, for example; "Front Signal #1" and then connect with a timer block to run the script at an interval.

Ha1kk's awesome 'Small Ship Light' mod is depicted in the screenshot and is available on the workshop.

@Far-Seeker I suppose it could be with some alterations. Somehow we'd need to keep track of the direction of movement for each group since the larson scanner reverses the direction of the lights rather than just restarting at the beginning. I may update the script when I get the chance so you can do an effect like that.

Could also be used create to a "Larson Scanner" as seen in Knight Rider and the original BSG?
