Description

When you place a light source, the light it gives is lower than the actual when it's carried or tossed on the ground. This makes it particularly difficult to chisel since one needs to place a light to chisel now. Please increase the light that items give when placed to the same as when held or dropped.

Holding a light source/or when one is dropped on the ground (NOT placed): image

Not holding a light source but light source IS placed: image

How to reproduce

Place a light source down. Hold a copy of the same light source. Notice the difference. Holding one and a dropped variant are the same light levels but placed lights are lower.

Because item and block lighting is rendered differently

While that may be correct, it doesn't change anything.
