1.17.1 how can i make a block always light level 15

[KaboomRoads]

I have a custom block that i want always to be lit up and ignore all lighting. How can i do that?

[Luis_ST]

add lightLevel to your Block.Properties, inside of the ToIntFunction retrun the light value you want, in your case 15

[KaboomRoads]

lightLevel truns the block into a light source. i realized that having the light level at 15 would not look great for what i need, i found out that

.isValidSpawn(Blocks::never).isRedstoneConductor(Blocks::never).isSuffocating(Blocks::never).isViewBlocking(Blocks::never))

gives the block behavior similar to glass which is what my block is supposed to be like but the methods listed above dont seem to work in my own class

take a look into the GlassBlock

the methode is not inside your Block class, for an example you can take a look at the Blocks.BEACON

[KaboomRoads]

by my own class i mean my custom blocks class where i register all my blocks

the problem is that Blocks cannot be resolved when i put Blocks::never into the params of the methods

Blocks::never

yeah the method does not exist in your class, learn basic java

[KaboomRoads]

it does i copied it from the blocks class

private static boolean never(BlockState p_50806_, BlockGetter p_50807_, BlockPos p_50808_) {
		return false;
	}

and then i changed Blocks::never to ModBlocks::never

this should work, but only for:

• isValidSpawn
• isRedstoneConductor
• isSuffocating
• isViewBlocking

but for lightLevel you need a method with BlockState as parameter and an int as retrun value

[KaboomRoads]

i only need 

isValidSpawn

isRedstoneConductor

isSuffocating

isViewBlocking

i already did the lightLevel

but its not working

define not working, also show your code

[KaboomRoads]

i fixed it now. there was a different never boolean somewhere in the blocks class

private static Boolean never(BlockState p_50779_, BlockGetter p_50780_, BlockPos p_50781_, EntityType<?> p_50782_) {
		return (boolean) false;
	}
