​Amethyst Spotlight

Overview The Amethyst Spotlight is a directional Redstone light block that projects a straight beam of light instead of spherical ambient illumination. Additionally, it can act as an optical signal relay to transfer light and Redstone signals wirelessly. ​Crafting Recipe ​Center: 1 Redstone Lamp ​Top, Bottom, Left, Right: 1 Amethyst Shard (plus shape, no corners required). ​Custom GUI & Range Upgrades ​Interactive Interface: Right-clicking the block opens a custom GUI menu. ​Range Slot: Insert Amethyst Shards to extend beam length: ​0 Shards (Base): 5 blocks range. ​1 to 10 Shards: Adds +1 block range per shard (up to 10 Shards = 15 blocks maximum). ​Receiver & Redstone Transmission (Balanced Mechanics) ​Receiver Upgrade: By default, the block only emits light. Placing 1 Diamond into the GUI's Receiver Slot enables Receiver Mode, allowing it to detect incoming light beams from other spotlights and chain the light beam forward automatically. ​Redstone Output Upgrade: Placing 1 Redstone Block into the Redstone Slot allows a receiving spotlight to convert detected light into a physical Redstone signal, powering adjacent blocks, dust, and lamps. ​Interruption: Any solid block, entity, mob, or player passing through the beam instantly breaks the connection, turning off downstream receivers. ​Color Tinting ​Placing Stained Glass or Stained Glass Panes directly in front of the spotlight alters the color of the emitted light beam.
