EDP - More Lighting Options

Description
26th, April. 2024 Update: Added 2 new circular variants of ceiling lights for LG, one version will also be available for SG
3rd, December. 2023 Update: Added 2 Full block ceiling lights for Large Grid, 6 Nav lights with 4 for LG and 2 for SG.
4th, May. 2023 Update: Added 2 halfblock ceiling lights for Large Grid.

Hello there fellow engineers! I present to you, More Lighting Options, with this pack you will get 12 small grid and 26 large grid Lighting and companion blocks. They have full build states, LODs, and are recolorable.

The packs consists of the following:

For Both Grid Sizes:

Spotlights of half block size at 0°, 30°, 45° (similar to the SG light from the Wasteland DLC), 1x1 slope (0° and 45°), and both parts of the 1x2 ramp (only at 0° for now), Multispectral Sensor (searchlight)

Small Grid:
Half block light (Centered, and offset)
1x1 block light
2 Navigation lights
3 circular lights
Multispectral sensor

Large grid:

Modular Street light parts, these include a base block, beam, 3 types of connecting angles, a 4 way connection with a klaxon, and the light itself.
12 versions of ceiling lights
4 Navigation lights
3 Alert Condition blocks (A frame, light, and speaker)
Area light

Known issues: Searchlight/Multispectral sensor light beam is a bit too large at the turret, I don't think it can be fixed at the moment though.

For modders/server owners I do intend this pack to be open for use as you may desire, so as long as credit is given for any alterations.

Well, I added your spotlights to my small ship and now I can't even look at it when the spotlights are on. xD I had to add an event controller to auto on and off those lights.

@Vas I'm not sure honestly, I haven't messed with the glare. I do usually use a lighting mod so I haven't really been bothered by it though either. It's one of them that makes shadows darker and lighting brighter, idk the name though.

Its the spotlights I was talking about, by the way. Forgot to mention that.

Is there a way to remove the glare from these? I mean damn its bright as hell. I think I have a mod that removes it from regular spotlights but these add it back in basically.

They were off for 3 of us in a MP server. It's probably the texture being different - like heavy armour and light armour painted the same look different. Any chance you'd consider making the half blocks the same as light armour, considering light/heavy armour are the only other half blocks out there?

@a.mcbob What graphic setting do u play on? I just tested them on high and they seem fine. The textures aren't the same as vanilla light armor though no, I'm using PaintedMetal_Recolorable for them while armor uses Armor_Light or LightArmor.

@Elachi Didn't check the others, but the one I saw it on last night was the Ceiling Light V4 HB. I tried several different skins and it always came out different. Up close, it looked like the material properties weren't the same, if that even makes sense in this context.

@a.mcbob on which one(s)?

The new blocks are great for adding extra light in places the vanilla blocks don't fit. Just one complaint: they don't paint properly. There's always a slight difference between them and the vanilla blocks around them, leaving an unsightly seam that's visible from quite a distance.

@Federation Cosmic-Bolt I could sometime yeah, I'm a bit busy with college at the moment and haven't had time to do so much lately. I have a few other projects to do first also but at some time they'll get added :)
