Colorful Lighting (Sodium Compat)

# ℹ️ Fork Information This mod is a direct fork of erykczy's [Colorful Lighting](https://github.com/erykczy/colorful-lighting). Our main goal with this fork is to extend mod compatibility for use in larger modpacks. If you find an incompatible mod, please report it on the [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/Camawama/colorful-lighting-sodium/issues) page. # ❓ How It Works Every light source gets a color, and that color spreads through the world just like vanilla light. Filters like stained glass tint the light passing through them. All the heavy lifting happens on a background thread, so your game stays smooth, and every color can be customized with a resource pack. Works on ANY server, no server-side install needed! # ✨ Features * Different blocks can emit different colors * Light changes color when passing through stained glass and other filters * Light can be absorbed by specific blocks * Colors are fully customizable through resource packs * Block states and even NBT can define different colors (a beacon lit by its effect, a charged creeper, a potion by its type) * 100% client-side: use it on ANY server! # 🎨 Resource Pack Addons Ready-made addon packs that add colored lighting entries for popular mods (currently hosted on CurseForge): * [Colorful Lighting for Supplementaries](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/colorful-lighting-for-supplementaries) * [Colorful Lighting for Connected Glass](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/colorful-lighting-for-connected-glass) * [Colorful Lighting for Tinted Campfires](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/colorful-lighting-for-tinted-campfires) Want to make your own?
