Best Light Sources?
Something that can potentially lit the whole room? So, far, majority of the light I have has been mediocre or bad at best.

Any suggestions on where to get one?

Much oblige.

The "cheap lights" are pretty bright, actually. You can craft them after you make the portable pixel printer

If you fill a room entirely with lava it will be overflowing with light. And death.

But in all seriousness, if you aren't picky about what the rooms are made of, there are glowstone biomes out there. Glowstone is a building block and emits light, making it pretty cool. I haven't tested much else, though, but Zizek is right.

The cheap light is pretty good.

any of the Flourescent are pretty good, though some of them have a wierd 'Cold Blue" light.

You mine your ship's light and print it in the 3d printer

Ya I tend to use ship lights more often than not. They are small, simple white lights that don't flicker or make noises. I haven't really noticed a difference in the brightness of any of the lights though, other than things that are supposed to be dim or bright. Maybe put a spotlight in the upper corner of a room?

No, this is Patrick.
And now? What light source is now the best?

Hasn't changed. Cheap lights and ship lights are more powerul than most every larger light. If you want a bright, but colored light, you're SOL. Colored lights are pretty dim.

You could always dispense with lighting entirely and just
/admin
/fullbright
And where can I get this cheap lights from?

The sun. For real, theres a furniture from the astronaut set, the sun... That thing lights a relly big radius.

Nothing from the Frogg merchant can be printed. Those are merchant exclusive, which is annoying.
