    Well, I bet we would all agree to a new lighting system, or Increase the brightness/Spead for Lamp blocks. We all hate placing these blocks every 2 blocks and makes the ship look.... Spammed. I would strong suggest that we would fix/add this. Wouldn't you agree?

    I totally agree. There's no way to adjust the gamma setting for this game. I had to disable shadows to make my ship interior visible.

    Since the previous last release I not had any problems.

    I even noticed that lights now emit through partially transparent blocks, making it possible to hide lava or ice crystals in a tree's leaves to make it brighter (as if the sun would shine on them from above when you are standing below, looking upwards)

    Yeah, the shadows overthrow the color too much, in my opinion. I get that space has no ambient light but space also has no sound and that's in the game already :p

    Talked to a dev a little while ago about lighting. They said they agreed it needed adjusting, so I'm sure it's on their to-do list, among millions of other things.

    Everything just takes time. Have faith ^_^

    I'd also like the ability to have an on/off/pulse/flicker setting for lights.

    Could work for red lights like red alert or perhaps make a hallway look broken or creepy!

    Yeah the plex lights need more work with the new system. At the very least they should emit light from the adjacent empty blocks. Even putting a light in a wall significantly lowers their effectiveness.

    My internet as of now is lacking. I'm only able to web browse, no videos or streaming, so my knowledge on q&a's is quite limited. :/

    Apologies for my current ignorance lol

    Fair enough.
