✨ CustomLight
CustomLight revolutionizes lighting in Minecraft! Say goodbye to static yellow lights. CustomLight introduces fully programmable, emissive light blocks capable of playing multi-stage color animations, conducting redstone and copper currents, disguising themselves with block facades, and seamlessly projecting dynamic colored light into the world.
🌟 Key Features
🌈 1. Programmable Colored Lighting & Animations
- Interactive GUI Editor: Open the in-game configuration screen using a Honeycomb to customize colors, fades, and delays.
- Keyframes & Sequences: Create multi-step animation sequences (Forward, Ping-Pong, Reverse, Random).
- Color Transitions: Smooth mathematical fades powered by
ColorAPI(Linear, Ease-In/Out, Bounce, Elastic). - Global Prefab Sync: Publish animation profiles globally to synchronize lighting across your world or server.
⚡ 2. Bidirectional Energy & Conduction
- Floor-Supported Copper Bars: Copper bars connect vertically and horizontally, routing power bidirectionally with rail-like persistence for elbows and corners. Discards floating airborne bars for realistic circuitry!
- Redstone Dust & Torches: Internal components allow light blocks to act as redstone dust, repeaters, comparators, and redstone torches while maintaining their lighting state.
- High-Voltage Damage: Electrified copper bars deliver realistic shock damage to unwary entities!
🎭 3. Dynamic Facades & Camouflage
- Right-click with any block to apply a translucent facade or solid camouflage.
- The light block adapts its internal glow and extracts dominant colors from the facade block!
- Glass tinting system allows endless hex tint variations.
🔆 4. Modular Dynamic Lighting Engine
- Integrated seamlessly with LightAPI to illuminate surrounding walls, floors, and entities with genuine colored light.
- Group Optimization: Connected light blocks automatically form cohesive volumetric light groups, maximizing FPS.
🛠️ Crafting Recipes
- CustomLight Base Block: Surround a Redstone Lamp or Copper Ingot with Glass Panes.
- Copper Bar: Craft using Copper Ingots in a vertical line to create conductive bars.
- Facade Panes: Combine Glass Panes with decorative blocks on the crafting table.
