About this project

What does Laterna add?

Laterna adds light sources in all sixteen dye colours, in ten shapes, each of which can wear its frame in its own colour or in a fixed black or white. Lit, they give off light level 15. The colours are the game's own dye values, so a Laterna lamp sits correctly beside wool, concrete and terracotta of the same name. Alongside the lamps are glowing glass, a window that is its own light, and the shade, a block that takes light out of the air around it.

Shapes

Lamp — a full block. It comes two ways: one redstone switches on, and an inverted one redstone switches off.

Slab and Panel — half a block, and a thin plate. Horizontal and vertical are separate blocks, and one crafts into the other. Two slabs stack into a full block.

Spotlight — recessed into the surface it is put on, with no thickness at all. Floor, wall or ceiling.

Bulb, Fixture and Rod — small fittings. The fixture takes a different shape on a wall than on a ceiling.

Cased lamp — an opaque core inside a clear case.

Anything mounted on a face drops when the block it is stuck to is broken.

Glowing glass

A window that is its own light, clear or in any of the sixteen dyes. It comes framed like the lamps, and frameless as well, so a wall of it reads as one sheet rather than a grid. Otherwise it is the game's own glass: you see through it, it does not suffocate, and redstone does not run through it.

The shade

A block that takes light out of the air around it. It is invisible and gives off nothing; while it is switched on it stops light at full strength. One over an opening leaves a room dark at noon with the view still there, and a cell filled with them is a dark room. Like the lamps it comes two ways: one redstone switches on, and an inverted one redstone switches off.

Frames

Every framed shape comes three ways: the frame in the lamp's own colour, fixed black, or fixed white. Which one you get is decided by what the frame is made of — ordinary stone, polished blackstone, or quartz.

Crafting

The first lamp is made from glowstone, redstone and stone. After that:

  • Dye eight lamps of a kind with one dye to get eight of another colour. The kind is kept.
  • Turn a horizontal slab or panel into its vertical twin, one at a time, and back.
  • Slabs and panels have their own recipes as well.

Glowing glass is eight at a time, glass around glowstone dust, or glass panes for the frameless one; the clear one is the one with a recipe, and every colour is that one dyed. The shade is four at a time, from stone, ink sacs and redstone dust.

日本語

Laterna は染料16色の光源を、10種類の形で追加します。どの形も枠をランプと同じ色・黒・白から選べます。 光っているときの明るさは15です。色は染料の色なので、同じ名前の羊毛・コンクリート・テラコッタと並べても揃います。 ランプのほかに、自分で光るガラスと、周りの光を消すブロックがあります。

形

ランプ — フルブロック。レッドストーンで点くものと、レッドストーンで消えるものの2種類があります。

ハーフブロックとパネル — 半分の厚みと、薄い板です。横向きと縦向きは別のブロックで、向けた場所に そのまま置けます。1個ずつ相互に変換できます。ハーフブロック2個を重ねるとフルブロックになります。

スポットライト — 設置面に埋まり、厚みがありません。床・壁・天井に置けます。

電球・照明器具・棒 — 小さな照明です。照明器具は壁と天井で形が変わります。

ケース入りランプ — 透明なケースの中に不透明な芯が入っています。

面に取り付けたものは、取り付け先のブロックを壊すと一緒に落ちます。

自分で光るガラス

透明と染料16色があります。ランプと同じ枠つきのほかに、枠なしもあります。枠なしを並べると格子にならず、1枚の面に 見えます。それ以外はゲームのガラスと同じで、向こうが見えて、埋まっても窒息せず、レッドストーンも通しません。

周りの光を消すブロック

姿が無く、自分は光りません。動いている間、通る光を上限まで止めます。開口部に1つ置けば、外が見えたまま部屋は昼でも 暗くなります。1マス分埋めれば暗い部屋になります。ランプと同じく、レッドストーンで動くものと止まるものの2種類です。

枠

枠はランプと同じ色・黒・白の3種類です。石・磨かれたブラックストーン・クォーツのどれで作るかで決まります。

クラフト

最初のランプはグロウストーン・レッドストーン・石で作ります。そのあとは次のとおりです。

  • 同じ種類のランプ8個と染料1個で、別の色8個になります。種類は変わりません。
  • 横向きのハーフブロックやパネルは、縦向きと1個ずつ相互に変換できます。
  • ハーフブロックとパネルには専用のレシピもあります。

自分で光るガラスは、ガラスでグロウストーンダストを囲むと8個できます。枠なしは板ガラスで囲みます。レシピがあるのは 透明なもので、色つきはそれを染めて作ります。 周りの光を消すブロックは、石・イカスミ・レッドストーンダストで4個できます。
