Light your base with Glowshroom blocks

The Glowshroom family gives you three light sources at different scales. Glowshroom Block is the bulk option for filling a ceiling or wall. Glowshroom Lamp is the brighter fixture for rooms you actually work in. Glowshroom Lantern is the hanging variant for corridors and doorways.

Glow Grime is a separate light-emitting block — use it where you want light without a clean fixture look, such as on rough stone or in a crawlspace. Void Soul Torch is the torch of the mod and works as a portable light source you can place on walls and floors like a normal torch.

Hazard and utility blocks

Geyser, Magma Pad and Rope are the functional pieces:

  • Geyser erupts upward. Place it where you want a vertical launch, and keep it away from anything you do not want thrown.
  • Magma Pad is a damaging floor block. Use it as a trap or as a barrier in a corridor you do not want walked through.
  • Rope hangs downward. Place it from a high point to create a climbable descent into a shaft or ravine.

Combine them: Rope down a shaft, Magma Pad at the bottom as a deterrent, Geyser as an emergency exit back up. Glowshroom Lantern along the walls keeps the route visible.
