What it does

Each lantern lights up when night arrives and goes dark when dawn comes, so the same block changes with the time of day. The mod is a Fabric decoration mod that runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds cover 1.20 – 26.3 across 24 release versions, with 1.0.0+mc26.3 for 26.3 as the latest Fabric file. Nocturne Lanterns is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Night-lit lanterns

    Lanterns turn on as night falls, lighting a space in the dark without manual toggling.

  2. Automatic dawn shutoff

    When dawn arrives the lanterns turn off again, so they do not stay lit through the day.

  3. Added lantern variants

    The mod introduces new lantern blocks, placeable like other decoration blocks in a build.
