Spotlights stop being useful past radii of about 15. The shadows become choppy and of horrible quality, and strange black-shade boxes appear in-game. I saw a post a while back in which the original poster referred to them as "artifacts". Whatever they are, they are quite distracting haha.

Just don't enable Shadowcasting on the main light. Then place smaller, much closer spotlights wherever shadows are needed.
