A Invisible Light Block is a block that does not have a visual appearance nor a collision hitbox, and can emit lights from 0 - 15.

When the player is holding the Light Source Block Item, all Light Blocks around the player will display a Light Icon.

This behavior is the same as the light block introduced in Minecraft 1.17, except survival player can still see the hitbox without holding the item.

Usage

  • Right Click the Light Block when holding the Light Block will cycle the light level from 0 - 15
  • The blocks placed with the item will always have a light level of 15

Blockstates

LEVEL 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

Trivia

  • This block is originally just called "Light Block", however during a language cleanup this is renamed to "Light Source Block"
  • The icon rendered when holding the Light Source Block is originally going to be rendered by a Block Entity Renderer rather than Minecraft's Particle System. However due to concerns over performance and failing to render the icon properly, this has been changed to a particle system. (The block entity itself however remains until v1.1.4)
