What it does

The mod adds the Kinetic Illuminator, a Create addon item. A player places invisible light blocks with it, and each placement uses some Glowstone Dust. Right-clicking a light block already placed removes it again. Light blocks can be placed inside water. Crouching while scrolling changes the light level of the blocks placed next. Lower light levels cost less Glowstone Dust per block, and a table in the mod lists the cost for each level. Create, Create Fabric, Architectury API and Fabric API are required. The server and every player need the mod installed. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 only, under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Invisible light blocks

    Placed light blocks emit light without showing a visible block, useful for lighting builds.

  2. Adjustable light level

    Scrolling while crouching sets the light level of the blocks placed, with a cost table in the mod.

  3. Removal by right-click

    Right-clicking an already placed light block removes it, so lighting can be adjusted in place.
