                Please generate a 2D CAD file in OpenSCAD for lighthouse

Creating a lighthouse in OpenSCAD involves using basic geometric shapes and combining them to form the structure of a lighthouse. Below is a simple version of a 2D lighthouse:

1. The base will be a circle.
2. The tower will be a rectangle.
3. The light room will be another smaller rectangle on top of the tower.
4. We can add some simple details like door and windows.

Below is the code to generate a basic 2D lighthouse in OpenSCAD:

```openscad
// Setting up the main structure of the lighthouse
module lighthouse() {
    // Lighthouse base
    circle(d = 50);

    // Tower
    translate([0, 25])
    square([20, 70], center=true);

    // Light room
    translate([0, 75])
    square([30, 20], center=true);

    // Door
    translate([0, 15])
    square([10, 15], center=true);
}

// Render the lighthouse as 2D
projection() {
    lighthouse();
}
```

1. **Setting up the Main Structure:**
   - The base of the lighthouse is made by the `circle()` function with a diameter of 50 units.
   - The main tower is created using the `square()` function with a base of `[20, 70]` units and centered at `[0, 25]`.
   - The light room on top is a smaller rectangle using the `square()` function with a base of `[30, 20]` units and centered at `[0, 75]`.
   - The door is a smaller rectangle at the bottom of the tower created using the `square()` function with a base of `[10, 15]` units and centered at `[0, 15]`.

2. **Rendering as 2D:**
   - The `projection()` function is used to render the lighthouse as a 2D silhouette.

You can adjust the dimensions and positions according to your design requirements. If you save this as a `.scad` file and open it in OpenSCAD, you'll see a simple 2D representation of a lighthouse.
