Parity means making features behave consistently across different Minecraft editions, most commonly between Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. Use this category to discuss released features that exist in both versions of the game but work differently. Please note that bugs are not parity issues and should be reported separately.

(Java Parity) Make light decrease by 1 level per block, instead of 3

In the Java Edition, light travels far more distance underwater, because light decreases 1 level per block underwater, while in the Bedrock edition, it decreases 3 levels every block it travels.

    In the Java Edition, coral reefs look far more beautiful, because you can see them more clearly from above water, because light travels more distance there. I'd love to be able to see that in the bedrock edition.

    Afaik, in Java Edition blocks only decrease the sky light level by 1, not the block light level. That is the true problem. If it was by block light level, the light would decrease block by block the further down you go
