Is it possible to have items with lights?
Altiris:
I want to know if it is possible to actually create something like a flash light. Can you put a lightsource on a .DTS object and then actually have it emitting light or Blockland doesn't let you do that?
Mute:
Ive seen many different attempts at making a flashlight in blockland and all of them had an annoying flickering effect.
It might be possible but nobody has done it perfectly yet, I have no knowledge of coding so I wouldn't know if it was actually impossible.

flickering is because of loops, if you don't want flickering on and off, something new must be created

Just attach an animated light datablock to it.

Can you add a mountPoint to the DTS and then mount the light object to it?
