Light-Switch Overhaul

Description
You walk over to your Light-Switch and as you flick it you think.. Why can't I change my lightbulbs? Why can't I obtain the skills needed to place a lightswitch in my own player-made base?! NO MORE! It's our Light-switch and we shall do with it what we want!
Want colored bulbs? No Problem. Battery connector? Your wish is my command. Sandbox controls? You got it!

MP Friendly!


This mod turns all Vanilla light switches into pick-up and placeable objects, allows you to change any bulb, add battery connectors, and completely reworks lighting from the vanilla game. It even adds the ability to craft right and left-sided switches! Each side (right and left) of the light switch faces in any direction depending on the wall it's touching. You can disable any feature via sandbox settings, some of which change on the fly, and most require a restart. I suggest setting sandbox settings, then restarting your server immediately.


This mod can be added or removed from any save, but note that any moved/changed switches will remain even if the mod is uninstalled.
To craft, find the book in the world, read it, and have the required tools. Other requirements are set via sandbox options.

TODO: Customize Crafting Speed by Sandbox Option, Add UI to change light strength range, and other various features.

Currently Thai and Brazilian Portuguese Translation. You can check posts and submit translations if you'd like. There is a lot to translate, and I don't have the time myself.

Huge thanks to many from the Official PZ Mod Development Discord, including Aiteron from The Indie Stone!
