    TLDR; I am looking for anyone who knows how, even if they dont want to do it, to go about starting a server/client mod for a block that will place high level light on blocks within a distance that also respects walls. Or a way to broadcast light farther out (like a torch that emits 15 light, but the light goes 15 15 15 14 13 instead of 15 14 13. i.e. it doesn't degenerate as quickly)

    Idea: People like big stuff, lighting big stuff is a total bitch, especially if it has a large area, you have to float lights or everything looks absurdly dark. I'm looking for a mod (or just train of thought) to increase light levels from a new item that would allow day quality light inside large structures. I've been told that this might be entirely impossible because lighting is client side and there doesn't appear to be a way to adjust the light degeneration code. Is there a way to just assign light levels like day does but restrict it inside walls?

    I understand that Bukkit doesn't support client-requirement mods, but hope one of you more knowledgeable guys could at least offer some input.
