Suggestion QoL Suggestion: Invisible Lighting Option for Vanilla Players

Hello everyone,

While working on builds in my town town, I've noticed how difficult it is to properly light up interior spaces without relying on visible, bulky light sources that can ruin the aesthetic.

I believe the server should remain fully enjoyable using a completely vanilla launcher with no mods required. I understand that many (if not most) players use fullbright to see clearly, but for anyone playing without it, interiors often end up looking very dark and gloomy.

Suggestion: Add a transparent light block that can only be placed within towns and is purchased from an NPC in spawn.

This would be purely a quality of life and aesthetic improvement as it would not affect gameplay mechanics. It would simply allow builders to create well-lit spaces that still look clean and intentional, even for players who play without fullbright.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

jakeman5

Most intellectual post I have ever had the privilege to read. I believe jakeman5 creates some incredible points as to why this harmless light block should be added to Lokamc, I don't believe this block creates any advantage except to light beautiful builds created by members of the community. I know this block may not be a vanilla feature, but a lot of things are not vanilla on Loka and this is one of least game changing things so I don't see no issue why this block shouldn't be added. Huge +1
 
If you do make it, make it a custom recipe that incorporates glow berries and glow squid ink. Call it like glow paste or something similar to that.
