[1.0.0] - 2026-06-04

Added

• Initial release for Minecraft 1.20.1 / Forge 47+
• Block tag #skylightlanterns:skylight_source — tag any lamp or sky block via datapack or KubeJS
• Virtual skylight regions beneath tagged sources using a bounded flood-fill (radius, depth, and node cap limits)
• Server-side SKY light boost so crops, saplings, and Dynamic Trees grow underground
• Default virtual sky level 14 — enough for Dynamic Trees (≥12) without enabling canSeeSky() (requires 15)
• MobMixin — undead do not sun-burn inside skylight regions when preventBurning is enabled
• Optional hostile spawn blocking inside lit regions
• Server config: config/skylightlanterns-server.toml (maxRadius, maxDepth, nodeCap, skyLevel, attenuateByDepth, preventBurning, blockHostileSpawns)
• Performance safeguards: per-tick dirty-chunk budget, per-source node cap, no client light-engine rewrites

Technical

• Mixins: LightEngine#getLightValue (sky engine only), LevelChunk#setBlockState, Mob#isSunBurnTick
• Does not override canSeeSky() at default settings
