Game Development: Lights in the Dark

neat update tbh, not sure why refueling lights that act as nothing more than cosmetic is required tho, seems a little overkill. Still new lighting stuff looks ace

Is there a command to change the light limit amount? Ender hasn't updated the UI yet to control these settings.

Very cool change with the lanterns

I was about to ask for this exact addition today when I was decorating the market with pumpkins. Made my day!

[*] Added "Spherical Parchment Lantern" and "Rectangular Parchment Lantern". Both are crafted from pigments, and the colors they shine in are determined by the pigment used. You can also put sketches on them, should you so desire. They cannot be used to light things, but burn for about an RL week without refuling.
Yusss! the longer burn time is fantastic.

Longer burn time is nice, but a week is still not enough imo. I would love for an overall increase to duration of various light sources, even if they couldn't then be used to light things. It's a bit of a chore to have to re-light them all the time.

People who care about it enough will likely make a bot for it. Cosmetics only shouldn't really need refueling/relighting just to look pretty

Yes, gl maxlights NUMBER to control the number of light sources (use 0 to use the default number), and :gl lighting simple or :gl lighting zoned to control the mode.

Glad to hear I am not the only one trying their best to make the game festive for the occasion.

This action can only be performed in shallow water. Passengers are no longer auto dismounted when knocked out.

Awesome change. More accurately fixes the problem you were trying to fix, thanks for listening to the feedback.

Please add the lanterns to the website preview of items that can be customized with art!
Will make creating art for it much easier!
