It's for scripting. If your just using dev mode there is no purpose for it.

Global booleans are essentially variables that hold a true or false value. Unless you're at least half experienced with scripting, don't mess with them.

(global boolean x true)

(script startup checker
	(if 
		(= x true)
		(begin
			(unit_kill (unit (list_get (players) 0)))
		)
		(begin
			(unit_set_desired_flashlight_state (unit (list_get (players) 0)) true)
		)
	)
)

Since x is initialized as true, it will kill the first player, due to the unit_kill command. Otherwise, if x were set to false through the (set x false) command, it would activate the flashlight of the first player.

If you wish to put it that way, yes.
