CustomLight

✨ 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.
