ElectricSheepDreams Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) Okay, this is for any forum member wishing to light an area to keep mobs from spawning...or wishing to build a Mob Spawner: Sunlight, lava and fire give a block a light value of 15 and torches 14 -1 per space. Mobs SPAWN on certain blocks* when the light lvl is 7 Thus unless you wish to pave your entire area with Glass blocks ( other blocks are available ), one needs place torches so that the light lvls remain above 7. Easy, peasy, yes? Not exactly as torches light in a diamond pattern. For maximum coverage, you should tessellate. Offsetting the torches, allows for an extra space between them : XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 09 10 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 90 10 11 10 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX 08 09 10 11 12 11 10 09 08 XX XX XX 08 09 10 11 12 13 12 11 10 09 08 XX 08 09 10 11 12 13 TT 13 12 11 10 09 08 XX 08 09 10 11 12 13 12 11 10 09 08 XX XX XX 08 09 10 11 12 11 10 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX 08 09 10 11 10 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 09 10 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 09 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 08 XX XX XX XX XX XX NOTE: This is for flat surface lighting bleed off values of -1 per block. Changes in elevation affect lighting values and should be taken into account. When in doubt, check the light value for the block in question and adjust torch placement as needed ( 8 or Above ). . * Mobs can NOT spawn on a block with: Light level 8 fences repeaters CLOSED gates** CLOSED trap doors** tilled earth** slabs ( of any kind)** Stairs ( of any kind) **] Carpet ** ** due to height variance beds chests pressure plates levers buttons rails Any block you considered a transparent block : Glass, iron bars, cobwebs, leaves and lava.
