personally i would just make it into a quick function:
cmds.spotLight( n='back_building_light_1', ca=20 )
cmds.move( -8,10,0 )
cmds.spotLight( n='back_building_light_2', ca=20 )
cmds.move( 0,10,0 )
cmds.spotLight( n='back_building_light_3', ca=20 )
cmds.move( 8,10,0 )
cmds.group( 'back_building_light_1', 'back_building_light_2',
'back_building_light_3', n='back_bldng_lgts_grp' )
cmds.rotate( -90,0,0 )
cmds.polyPlane( w=20, h=20, sx=10, sw=10 )
def intense(x):
cmds.setAttr( "back_building_light_1.intensity"=x)
cmds.setAttr( "back_building_light_2.intensity"=x)
cmds.setAttr( "back_building_light_3.intensity"=x)
intense(20)
intense(40)
intense(5)
you get the picture :)
