Information
Most of the lamps in the mod are used as a light source, building material and/or a decoration block. However, a few other lamps have different functions/purposes (see Usage section for details).



Lamps
Lamps are blocks that emit light when powered by a redstone signal (such as Redstone Lamps). All lamps in the mod have a lit and an unpowered texture. They have a light level of 15 when lit, and a light level of 0 when unpowered.

Lights
Lights are blocks that constantly emit light, regardless of if they are powered or not (such as Glowstone). All lights in the mod have a light level of 15.

Neon
Neon blocks are patterned, animated light sources. Most neon blocks are crafted with Lapis Lazuli or Redstone, with the exception of Runic Neon, which naturally generates in structures across Runandor.

All of these blocks have lamp functionality, meaning that they will not emit light and be inanimate when unpowered. Runic Neon has a separate "light" version in addition to its lamp version.

Turning On/Off
All lamp blocks will only emit light if they are activated by a redstone signal. Lights will emit light regardless if they are activate by a redstone signal or not. Dustopian Lamp is an exception to this, it can be turned on by pressing use on it with a Darkly Powder.

The Dustopian Lamp is a necessity for fighting the Primordial Five boss. The boss can only be fought if the Dustopian Lamps are arranged in a certain pattern. The lamps will turn themselves off when the boss spawns in.
