Neon Glowsticks

Throwable glowsticks that bounce, roll and light up the dark with coloured light.

📦 Requires NeoForge 1.21.1 on client and server

✨ Features

• 🌈 16 glowsticks - one for every dye colour, 3D in hand and on the ground; the black one glows ultraviolet, the brown one amber.
• 🎯 Throw them - Use cracks and throws a glowstick, Sneak + Use drops it at your feet; dispensers shoot them too.
• 🏀 Real physics - they tumble, bounce off walls and mobs, roll and settle flat, sink slowly and drift with the current.
• 💡 Coloured dynamic light that spreads like vanilla light, follows the stick in flight and lights up mobs and players, with a soft halo.
• ✋ Glows in your hand - walk through a cave with one in hand, for you, other players and mobs.
• ⏳ Burns out after 10 minutes with a puff of smoke; pick a stick back up and it keeps the glow it has left.
• 🛡️ Client-side light - nothing is placed in the world: safe for servers and other mods, mobs still spawn.

⛏️ Crafting

Shapeless: Copper Ingot + Glowstone Dust or Glow Ink Sac + any Dye = 4 glowsticks of that colour.

⚙️ Configuration

Glow time (common config); light level, held light, colour strength, number of lights and the halo (client config) - both in the in-game mod list.

🤝 Compatibility

✅ Sodium - works, coloured light included.

❌ Embeddium - its chunk renderer may bypass the light: sticks glow, blocks around them may stay dark.
