This is a small lightweight mod that adds dynamic lights when holding any item that creates light when placed using light blocks, NBT tags with multiplayer (Essential mod and LAN) compatability.
This includes lava buckets despite the item not being a place-able block.
Soft coded so it works with most modded blocks as long as they have a light source when placed!
Works with offhand too!
UPDATE IS OUT!!!
Planning on add optifine like features in the future: No block light sources, items dropped light sources, creepers lighting up when igniting, making the code clientside but still working with multiplayer and mobs on fire creating light.
If I made it like optifines dynamic I will make it a seperate mod because it does fix things like: Not being able to have light due to an enclosed area full of no-collision blocks, mobs not being able to create light.
But, it adds issue like: Making mobs still able to spawn around you, makes your lights unable to melt snow and ice when near them (realistic) and a couple others.
