Lens for lights

I think that there should be lens made out of copper and amethyst to increase the range of a light source block (only on the side where the lens was placed).

It should have an inventory with the capacity of a chest or half, but only to store amethyst blocks or sherds to increase the range by 1 or 9 depending on the amount and fuel to increase the brightness depending on the amout of block which can be smelt by the fuel

    Explaination of this block:

    I imagine it to be the size of an item frame and also opens a special inventory when right clicked.

    In that inventory, i think you can only put amethyst shards to increase the range by one and blocks of amethyst to increase the range by 9. Then, fuel to increase the brightness of the light by the amount of blocks smelt by that fuel (Coal=8 so it's gonna be: Brightness * (the range of the light source / 8)

    its a nice idea, but maybe it should be crafted with 6 glassblocks, 2 Waxed copper blocks, and 1 amethyst block in center. And you should use an amethyst block/shard to fill it like how respawn anchors are filled. Overtime, it would be smelted, it gets more intense the lighter block/sunlight shines throught it. so if 0 light received, it wouldn't smelt at all.

    That's a great idea and i think the limit should be 8 for each, we should probably keep a fuel and an amethyst slot to increase range and brightness separately

     

    For example, a lens on an oxydized copper bulb would increase it's range with the same brightness with amethyst, increase it's brightness with fuel and could also do both

    And if there's enough brightness, it should burn undead mobs
