[Og] 2x4 Sun Lamp

Description
Description:
Do not use the vanilla OCD-friendly sun lamps any more!
This mod adds a 2x4 Sun Lamp, which perfectly fits 2 Hydroponics in your greenhouse.
power consumption: 300w
cost: 20 steel

The lighting range is 2*4 for 100% brightness (white), and 4*6 for 50% (yellow).


Compatibility and Performance:
I test it with my over-500 mod list and no compatibility issue is found.
Compatible with Plant 24H And Setable Schedule and other mods that change sun lamp schedule!
Incompatible with Light Out, but the author already know about it (however it may be really hard to solve).
The performance impact is almost the same as vanilla sunlamps, which is negligible.

Notice:
In few seconds after loading the save , the lighting may seem strange. It's OK and will come back to normal after a "tick rare", because the game itself do not have mechanisms to spawn rectangle lighting area, so some unusual ways are applied.

Some of the code are from Self Lit Hydroponics by Aidan. I asked for the permission about a month ago, but haven't received any reply yet. If Aidan opposes this in the future, I will delete this mod.

Man, sadly so mamy mods that look cool have no description. Just a shame that all the creators put so much work and love in and then don't spent another 2 minutes for the steam workshop. I know you like your mod, but do you really expect people to download and install it, then open the game, start a save, and only then being able to check for balance..?

Need 3x2 and 2x2 for certain mods that add hydroponics.

For the Light Out issue, the sunlamp column from unity columns has the same issue, they didn't light up without a pawn's present and don't show the "always on" button. But they are still functioning and the plant is still 100% lit, maybe you can have some idea how to fix it from it.

@Nightfish - Use 'Allow Tool'. There's a function in there called "Select Similar". Simply select the basin, then press the keybind for "Select Similar", and then click and drag over all the hydroponic basins. It will then only select them. And this works for anything with multiple different selectables.
