When to build lighting?

The main question, before we even go there, is ‘do you need static lighting?’

Most people are just using moveable lights in UE now, especially as Lumen is dynamic.

You only need static lighting if you’re making the game for a very specific ( and low power ) platform, like mobile. Possibly VR.

Just make your lights moveable, and the message about building lighting goes away.
