How to add grayscale value to alpha channel - Skinny - 07-25-2021

The grayscale value of the alpha channel in my DDS file determines the extent to which the body of the car, in my racing game, reflects the sun.
How can I assign a grayscale value, varying from white to black, to the alpha channel in Gimp?

To edit the alpha channel you add a layer mask an edit the mask. When you "apply" the mask, it becomes the alpha channel.
