Flashlight

 # Flashlight By CreepermeYT A native datapack and resource-pack (packaged as a mod by modrinth) that will add a **Flashlight** to your world! The datapack/mod works **server-side**: Install it once, works for everyone on the server! **Due to Minecraft Datapack Limitations in 1.20.1, some features are not the same in 1.21.4 and 1.20.1** These will be marked **[1.21.4 only]** & **[1.20.1 only]** ## Features - Flashlight crafting recipe: - made of 4 iron, 1 redstone block, 1 spyglass,  the Crafting Recipe will give a **_knowledge book_** instead: **[1.20.1 only]**  - Flashlight item (When held in the mainhand): - Turns 'on' or 'off' by right clicking - Summons particles to show the light path while 'on' - Works as a spyglass accessory: you can use it to zoom as well - Adapts its focus/width depending on how far you aim it at - Decreases its durability while 'on' and breaks in 5 minutes **[1.21.4 only]** - Decreases its durability at a random moment depending on its focus distance: **[1.20.1 only]** **[1.20.1 only]** Focus Distance 75% of flashlights will last 50% of flashlights will last 25% of flashlights will last 50 blocks 2.1 mins 5 mins 10 mins - Flashlight custom model (not included in datapack UNLESS resource pack is installed) - Changes texture depending on state: 'on' or 'off'   - Embedded: the dynamic lights datapack: [Dynamic Lights By CreepermeYT](https://modrinth.com/datapack/dynamic-lights-creepermeyt), which adds dynamic lights. The Flashlight requires it to work. **[1.21.4 only]** ## Installation ### Two options: - **Install as _mod_**: - The **mod (.jar)** should be installed on the /mods/ folder to work. - You're good to go :] - **Install as _datapack_ + _resource pack_**: - The **resource pack (.zip)** should be installed on the /resourcepacks/ folder to work. - The **datapack (.zip)** should be installed on the /saves//datapacks/ folder to work. - **resource pack (.zip)** and **datapack (.zip)** are the **same .zip** file available for download in [versions](https://modrinth.com/datapack/flashlight-creepermeyt/versions) ## Limitations - Performance: placing and removing over 100 light blocks when you move the flashlight is inevitably demanding on the server. - Distance limit: the flashlight has a maximum distance of 100 blocks.
