HyskLightinhibition
by YkinLing
HyskLightinhibition is a Fabric server command that suppresses lighting updates, keeping a chosen area dark for mob farms and portal builds.
What it does
A command turns lighting inhibition on, skipping the current lighting update so that brightness changes in the affected area are prevented. Players who log out and reconnect to the server see the change applied once the update is held, and the author suggests trying this if the view looks stale. The mod is server-side only, so only the server needs it and players join without installing anything. Fabric API is required, and the card covers Fabric files for 1.21.11.
The inhibition suits work that depends on darkness. Complete darkness maximizes mob farm efficiency, since spawning rules depend on light level, and the author notes pairing the mod with the block update suppression feature of Carpet TIS Addition to build nether portals. The mod switches itself off when the server stops, which keeps world saving safe, so a stopped server does not leave the lighting frozen.
Files are published for Fabric only, in version 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, released on 2026-03-27 along with the first publication date. The mod is listed under Game mechanics and is distributed under the BSD 2-Clause License, so it is not open source.
