Describe your suggestion

Add some way of manually placing Miner's Light. Either by adding recipe for them and some texture for item form, or by writing KubeJS script to place miner light by right-clicking a block with glowstone dust (can KubeJS even do this?)

Why would you like this added/changed?

Miner's Light have pretty good aesthetics, so I want to use it as a decoration for my base, but currently the only way to do it, is by placing it in a dark place using Mining Gadget, and then using a Cardboard box to move it to the desirable location

Example KubeJS script that places the miner light by Crouch + right-clicking a block while holding glowstone dust

const glowItem = 'minecraft:glowstone_dust';
const glowBlock = 'mininggadgets:minerslight';


onEvent('block.right_click', event => {
    if (event.item.id !== glowItem) return;

    let targetBlock = event.block.offset(event.facing);
    if (targetBlock.id == 'minecraft:air' && event.player.isCrouching()) {
        targetBlock.set(glowBlock);
        if (!event.player.isCreativeMode()) event.item.count--;
        event.cancel();
    }
});

I'll think about it, good suggestion, thanks for the script as well 😄

Any update on this? It would be super useful as the Miner’s Light looks quite nice.

Script worked like a charm 👌

This script was just a quick example, so it have some issues:

• Can't place miner's light while flying, cuz game don't think you are crouching when pressing SHIFT in mid-air.
• Sometimes there is another invisible block instead of air, probably created by some mod, and so you can't place miner's light there with a script.
  First problem can't be solved with current KubeJS capabilities it seems like, while second one can only be solved by identifying id of that invisible non-vanilla air block and checking for it too

Also maybe it's worth adding some way for players to know that they can place lights with glowstone. Maybe add info to glowstone dust description?

Got any idea which block that is? 😅

Might be minecraft:cave_air

Ah right!
