This mod requires Trinkets to function.

For it to emit light LambDynamicLights is required.

For the in-game config screen you need to install Mod Menu and Fzzy Config. Otherwise you need to manually edit the file config/usefullanterns/config.toml.

Currently you can only configure which side the lantern is on. Making the Lantern On Right Side config value to true will move it to the right side rather than the left side.

This mod by default works with:

• Vanilla Lanterns
• Chipped
• Supplementaries Squared
• [Let's Do] Meadow
• Better Archeology

But don't worry, you can easily add your own mod compatibility with just a single datapack. By editing the tag data/trinkets/tags/items/legs/lantern.json you can make any lantern work with Useful Lanterns!

Example:

{
  "replace": false,
  "values": [
    "myfavoritemod:cute_lantern",
    "myfavoritemod:cool_lantern"
  ]
}

The "replace": false is really necessary here, since if you overwrite the default tag none of the lanterns this mod supports will work. Yes, not even the vanilla ones.

The majority of this mod is written with the help of Claude AI but the mod logo and the description is entirely made by me. AI is used here as a tool instead of fully relying on it.
