looks like the kilngon pain stick makes its return.

You have an ABM on air there!

This is a very wonderful experiment here, Hybrid Dog. I am curious to see how this turns out.

How could this be achieved with artificial light sources and lava?

nice work

[Hybrid Dog]

I updated this mod.
— global_step is used → less lag
— sunlight propagates is used instead of a dark texture, so smooth lighting needs to be disabled
— shadows are only calculated at the chunk where the player stands in yet
— they are shown not only on the ground

Huh. Interesting.

[paramat]

Interesting.

I wanted to try it, but it didn't work. Here is the log...

Maybe it has something to do with the s in "chunk" but I'm not sure at all.
