Pointlight is a sphere of light.

Spotlight is a cone of light.

Pointlight emits light out in all directions from one point.

SpotLight only emits light out of the face of a part, and points in one direction. To change that direction you need to rotate the part or change its angle.

So if I had a SpotLight, a wall would stop it right? Unless I change the direction to somewhere else Lasermaster1 0 — 10y

Yes, a wall, such as a Part, would stop a SpotLight from spreading throuh the wall. bloonblaster2000 55 — 10y
