Light Sensor - CiscuLog/Survivor-s-Elegy GitHub Wiki

A Light Sensor is a copper device used to detect the light level on the player that's holding it. It has 2 modes, like a daylight sensor.

Obtaining

Crafting

A Light Sensor can be crafted with 4 copper, 1 quartz, 1 redstone and 1 amethyst shard.

Usage

Holding it on the player's weapon slot will update the item texture with a numeric representation of the light level on the player's feet. This number will range between 0 and 15. 0 is for light level 0, 15 is for light level 15, and the range in between is displayed accordingly.

Using the item (right click) will switch the device to night mode, and will display the darkness level instead. This effectively means reversing the scale displayed, 0 for light level 15 and 15 for light level 0.

On light mode the quartz will be white and the numbers red. On night mode both quartz and numbers will be blue.

Item Frames

A light sensor can be put on an item frame and it will show the light level at their location.

Light Sensors on item frames update every second, making them less accurate than handheld sensors which update 20 times per second.
