[Block Request] Glowing Wedges and Arches #6058

Open Crimson-Artist opened 1 month ago

Crimson-Artist commented 1 month ago

Its rather frustrating that there is no real way to have slopes glow. The only way would be to use CEs but that brings in performance problems for something thats purely aesthetic. The closest I can get is using screens and even then they don't emit light like glowing tiles.

Can we have proper glowing wedges and glowing arches?

@Crimson-Artist Hi, what would be the use? Thanks

purely for aesthetics. There is no stretchable/scaleable block that has a glowing sloped side. As i said the closest approximation to this currently in game is the monitor wedge but even then the glow from the screen part is nowhere near as luminous as glow tiles so it never meshes well with the rest of my build. The easiest way to show you is from something I built in Avorion.

20241022020950_1 Each of the glowing parts is a glowing wedge block that can be stretched. Something similar to this but with the logic functionality of glow tiles would be great. I also wanted a glow arch block since I've seen instances where a wedge block wouldn't make sense but a glowing arch block would.
