nice i did use the both of the mods anyways

ATTENTION EVERYONE:
This mod is now obsolete. The latest version of Wall Light includes the plant growing wall lights with all the performance improvements that this old mod lacks. If you only used this mod and not wall light, wall light now has an option to disable the regular wall lights and only use the plant growing ones, which are now named "Wall Sun Lights". The new version will not work with 1.0 however, so I will leave this mod up for people still on that version.

Thank you for this. I love using mountains as my main base and making rooms to seperate the apini flowers and the roku mushrooms (which don't require light but still) but needing light for veggies has really helped. I don't like using a ton of bays I mean I can but I don't like to. Thanks again for your mod!

Thank you so much for updating

Awesome mod!

what about multiplayer?

Just wanted to say how much I love this mod. I've used this for pretty much all my Rimworld games for a couple years now. My game wouldn't feel quite right without it. : )

Being so considerate as to add adjustable settings makes you a superior modder good sir, multiple thumbs up to you my man
Murmur  [author] Apr 10, 2020 @ 7:53am 
I know right.

Bruh... "white mode"? Racist sun lamps... I've seen it all now.
legoholic Feb 29, 2020 @ 5:56pm 
Love this mod! The white light addition is nice too. I liked the UV purple, but find its really over powering.
BrotherHovis Feb 29, 2020 @ 1:34am 
thanks for the mod Murmur :)
Mad Alkemyst Nov 28, 2019 @ 8:56am 
@Murmur Thank You so much for the color addition! And the NPC-Away lights will be just as stellar, I'm sure! You're a demi-god <3
Mistletoe The Bard Nov 28, 2019 @ 6:14am 
@Murmur Oh that will be super awesome. All these wall attachment being attacked from outside is so annoying... such as this mod and gloomy kitchen lol
Murmur  [author] Nov 28, 2019 @ 1:07am 
You're welcome. Got another update coming very soon for both this and the regular Wall Lights that will stop enemies from attacking the lights from the outside.
Mistletoe The Bard Nov 28, 2019 @ 12:59am 
@Murmur Thanks
Murmur  [author] Nov 27, 2019 @ 10:36pm 
It is done.
Murmur  [author] Nov 27, 2019 @ 10:14pm 
I've successfully added the 'white mode', an option in the mod settings to turn the bright purple into plain white. Just need to do some testing and take a screenshot of it and I'll update.
Murmur  [author] Nov 26, 2019 @ 3:53pm 
I'm getting the urge to play Rimworld again so I'll probably end up doing some more modding stuff. I plan on adding a 'white' option for these lights since multiple people have requested it.
Mad Alkemyst Nov 13, 2019 @ 3:31am 
This would be excellent, if the color didn't trigger migraines. Hopefully soon (TM) there will be an option for white.Or even a drastically reduced lumen output. if it were a very dim version of what it is currently, that might be tolerable.
Mod idea is stellar, don't get me wrong. I personally can't use it and that makes me sad.
Mistletoe The Bard Sep 6, 2019 @ 10:28pm 
This is the most balanced wall sun lamp mod, but I am really not sure about the purple... especially when I live on sea ice and that's my room light as well.....

And some have delicate sensibilities... ;o)

Well, some people are more UV-sensitive than others.

@Seanmacleod
how can i tolerate the purple when it makes me feel like im gonna gag

(dont ask why... i dont know.... and for the record ... the "colour" purple, doesn't bother me is just that colour for some reason... its same with thoses lights ...black lights i think ?.. that changes white colours to blue)

I could use the mod, and stick a load of lights next to the purple to "mask" the purple hue.... but that defects the point of having this mod
nubcake -MeoW- Aug 13, 2019 @ 8:27pm 
Pretty please a white one... :o))
Thank you either way. Use both your wall light mods.
Murmur  [author] Aug 13, 2019 @ 7:08pm 
But it looks coooooooool
"The" SeanMacLeod Aug 13, 2019 @ 6:04pm 
Copy/pasted from https://homeguides.sfgate.com/plant-light-spectrum-growing-flowering-plants-72801.html :

"The most important blue wavelengths are from 430 to 450 nm. This part of the spectrum is also known as cool light. These wavelengths encourage vegetative growth through strong root growth and intense photosynthesis. Blue light is often used alone during the early phases of plant growth, such as starting seedlings, when flowering is not desired."

And:
"The longer wavelengths of light are red in color. The most important wavelengths in the red spectrum are from 640 to 680 nm. These wavelengths encourage stem growth, flowering and fruit production, and chlorophyll production. The red wavelengths are known as warm light, and they are naturally more prevalent in sunlight during the shorter days of fall and winter."

So just tolerate the purple, it's also the color of royalty :bigGrin:

+1 for a white option,
purple offends my delicate sensibilities ;o)
I'm growing plants, not having a seance

@Murmur
hey boss, just wanna say i love the mod it makes my "greenhouses" look so much more tidy.

only thing is, is there any chance of adding choice of colors or at least just the normal white colour?
(as for some reason i keep feeling a bit sickly whenever i start looking at the pinkish/purple hue of the lights :S :< )... i dont think it'd be fair to unsub from a mod for something simple as this

@Murmur
Hey man, this mod is great, thanks for making it. When playing multiplayer though I noticed that it boots the second player for some reason. No big deal but figured I would let you know in case you get around to working on it again.
แอเรียส Feb 26, 2019 @ 9:06am 
i like this mod.
Tyray3P Feb 24, 2019 @ 3:23pm 
Yeah, I don't see a reason for that either
Murmur  [author] Feb 19, 2019 @ 1:39pm 
But why?
VuBo Feb 19, 2019 @ 9:31am 
Maybe nerf the lamp by giving a debuff to colonists? Or Not affecting colonists, only plants
Dr. Caesar Feb 16, 2019 @ 6:29am 
since I'm so concerned with realism, I guess i'll uninstall 75% of the mods I already have I guess. I'm just sayin it could be an additional option in the mod settings. I'd rather have a nerf to the radius of the light and still have the corners, than have a ton of overlapping lights or weird corners I have to fiddle with.
"The" SeanMacLeod Feb 15, 2019 @ 7:16pm 
....except that light doesn't work like that.....
Dr. Caesar Feb 15, 2019 @ 4:27pm 
Maybe add an option to add the corners to the light radius? I'd honestly rather have fewer rows of light coverage than have the annoying corner's being completely unlit. It's a pet peeve of mine that drives me crazy with the vanilla lamps too, but at least those are more of a circular thing. I don't see much reason to not include 2 tiles to a front facing lamp.
TrueAvarus Feb 10, 2019 @ 12:40pm 
Guys there are questions about color variants. This is clash course on pland physiology.
Plants do not need white light(all colors combined) but only part of spectrum, red and blue especially. Comibnation of those colors is PURPLE/purpbish pink.
Reason why plants are green is that they do not use green part of spectrum so it reflect away from the plants, thus you see green color.

So in sike of realism we have these beautiful purple lights.
"The" SeanMacLeod Feb 8, 2019 @ 6:53pm 
@MANIA-VENOM
It's based on ultraviolet grow-lights, so I'm gonna guess "no".
EMERL Feb 8, 2019 @ 3:30am 
can we have more color options for the light besides just purplish pink?
DistractedGoldfish Jan 21, 2019 @ 11:13am 
@Murmur Would it be possible to make a wall-mounted version of the fire popper? Both of your wall mounted mods are great and I use them every playthrough, a wall-mounted popper would make a great tri-fecta

Its too late, gotta cut off your legs to save you.
Moth Gaming Jan 7, 2019 @ 7:14am 
it hurts help
Murmur  [author] Jan 6, 2019 @ 9:55pm 
Hey atleast you put it in something, so that's a win.
Moth Gaming Jan 6, 2019 @ 7:29pm 
instructions unclear dick stuck in pc cooling fan
Murmur  [author] Jan 6, 2019 @ 2:15am 
I almost made it have it's own research but in the end I decided to give it the same requirements as the vanilla sun lamp, since it's essentially just a less powerful version of that.
fatburner Jan 6, 2019 @ 1:24am 
Nice mod. I feel like it should require a research first tho. Perhaps located after Colored Lights -> UV Lights

This would actually give me a reason to research colored lights as well
Murmur  [author] Jan 5, 2019 @ 2:57pm 
Nope, they shouldn't affect this in any way.
Jacbo Jan 5, 2019 @ 1:26pm 
Also, do mods that change the sun lamp's power use affect/break this mod in any way?
Murmur  [author] Jan 5, 2019 @ 1:24pm 
@jacob, you sure can.
