Coolit Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Hey guys, I put together an image with 4 screenshots comparing the electric light intensity. I personally think that for all the work it takes to wire up all those lights and the time it takes to save for 6 solar cells + 6 batteries at max durability, the lights should be a lot stronger. I feel like the lights are weaker than candles. Lights 1 - Dome Light 2 - Fluorescent Light 3 - Simple Light 4 - Simple Lights (4) Room Sizes Small - 5x5x4 Large - 9x9x4 Textures Floor - Grey Marble / Carpet 4 Walls and Ceiling - Metal Stainless Steel Looks like the Simple Light wins out of all 3. The 4th screenshots shows the use of 4 simple lights in a 9x9 room. Let me know your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubo Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 AH! Thank you for this. Someone did this a while back and I went searching for that post. Yes, the lighting could be stronger as well as having a good outdoor spotlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Lights be all kind of jacked up. Minibike light seems to be at ground level, too. None of them do well with ambient lighting, but oddly torches do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingSlayerGM Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I agree. Lights are very expensive and still less powerful than torches... they also don't look that good either Changes very much needed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then that's what it is for them, and the way you power the lights has no effect upon the light they output. Yes! Simple lights are better but the industrial 'square'/'rectangle' ones are decent too. The 'color scheme' of the area you're trying to light up does have an effect upon the lighting. Albeit - they all should produce a bit different light pattern or 'lighting scheme.' As I've been saying we need more options in everything and for lighting I think it might be cool to have a 'block light.' One that could light up the floor or wall from that block. Or even 'LED' strip lights we could either add directly or as an option for a block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
