Option To Make Player Entities Emissive. #32

Open MaidThatPrograms opened 5 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It can be clunky to always need a torch (or other light emitting item) in your off-hand to have light around you and restrict your ability to use the off-hand feature to its fullest. This can be especially bad if you prefer to have the brightness level lower in game but would like to see your immediate surroundings better. An example of when this is not a fun gameplay feature is during combat, if you want to use a shield in your off-hand, you can't also have a light source which can lead to very dark fights that are not fun.

Describe the solution you'd like Add the option to make player entities emit light by default.

Describe alternatives you've considered It could also be specific to make only the player with the mod emit light instead of all players. Alternatively, if you have a light-emitting block anywhere in your hotbar or inventory, it could be treated as being in your off-hand for lighting purposes. Another option is to make certain armor pieces or items like the shield emit light, especially if you have an armor trim that could be emissive.

Additional context No additional context.

Ah, I'm specifically thinking as something that can be done clientside when connecting to a vanilla server. So just visually appearing to light up the world but not actually affecting light levels.
