Dynamic Lights #154

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I find it odd that there is no real solution for dynamic lighting on Forge without Optifine, and I would like one.

Describe the solution you'd like A dynamic lights solution that allows me to hold a torch in my offhand and see as though it were placed down. It's perfectly fine if it's client side only, I'm not concerned with actual light levels in terms of mob spawning or similar. I'd be perfectly happy if this was built into Sodium Reforged, or if compatibility with Lucent (see below) worked, or if it were supplied by another mod entirely.

Describe alternatives you've considered The only two I could find are Lucent, which isn't compatible with Sodium Reforged, and AtomicStryker's Dynamic Lights, which works by placing a light block wherever the player moves, which has some severe limitations, such as it not working when the player is on a ladder or in a doorway, for example.

I've spoken with the Lucent devs and confirmed (unsurprisingly) that they have no interest in maintaining Sodium compatibility
