I'm wondering what's the brightest a light block can be in a mod?
Seems light_source = 14 is brightest but is there a way to make a block even brighter?

I'm not quite sure but I think LIGHT_MAX is 14 because of beeing able to decide if it's sunlight or artificial light. Blocks within sunlight are at light level 15.

All I know is there needs to be the ability to make very bright blocks... industrial lighting and large room lighting isn't supposed to be dim lol.
I say this as I have built structures with tall rooms of 10-20 blocks and even with brightest block it's still rather dim at the floor level.

Nope. Max light of block is LIGHT_MAX.
