The problem with the lighthouses for what Bubblehead1980 is doing, is that lighthouses and such are "waterfront" land items, and as such, will set themselves on the "surface" of the water, so to have a lighthouse show on a spit of land, you need to raise the "Height=" line in a text editor. First though, you have to know how "high" a given spot is by zooming all of the way in on the proposed location, hovering the mouse over the spot, pressing the "H" key for the height, and looking at the "Height:" field in the bottom border of the Mission Editor. Use that to get somewhat close to the proper height for the text editor, then run a test mission and see what it looks like. You do have to add a "controller" to the light though, if you want it to work, else the war time "black-out" order put out by the local authority does apply...
