Redstone Lamps

Added in 12w07a, these redstone-powered blocks are one of my favorites. When redstone lamps receive power, they emit light at a level of 15, one level more than torches. This greatly simplifies complex lighting systems as you no longer need to use pistons to push a glowstone block into a hole. One feature to note is that power sources, such as levers and pressure plates, can be placed directly on them, and when they’re activated, they toggle the block as well. This does not work, however, with redstone torches, because when they’re on blocks, they’re powering every direction except the block on which they are placed.



Bugs:
- When breaking a lit redstone lamp, the item drop is displayed as a redstone lamp in its on state, therefore you cannot store unlit redstone lamps with lit redstone lamps in your inventory. An easy fix to this is to place the block down again, and while it’s unpowered, to break it again.
