Usage
Soul lanterns can be placed on the top or bottom surfaces of most solid Minecraft:blocks, although some require {{#vardefine: control | shift on keyboard or right button on the right side of gamepad }}sneaking. More information can be found at Opacity/Placement.
When placed below a block the soul lantern appears to hang. They connect to Minecraft:chains seamlessly.
Soul lanterns can be placed (if a support platform is presented) or hanging (if a ceiling block is presented). The type of the block (solid, opaque, transparent, etc... given the block has top/bottom solid surface) does not affect the ability to hang of a soul lantern, similar to torches. Press use on the targeted block or a block adjacent to the air block the soul lantern is going to occupy to place it. If the latter is used and both the support/ceiling block is presented:
- Press use on the upper half of the adjacent block to "hang" the soul lantern up.
- Press use on the lower half of the adjacent block to "place" the soul lantern down.
If the object the soul lantern is placed on receives a block update that does not support the placement of the soul lantern, it is removed and dropped as an item (e.g: soul lantern on a trapdoor and the trapdoor is flipped).
Light
The soul lantern emits a light level of 10, five levels less than the normal lantern. Due to their lower light level, soul lanterns do not melt Minecraft:snow or Minecraft:ice.
When the Render Dragon Features for Creators experiment is enabled in Minecraft:Minecraft Preview, the inside of soul lanterns emits colored point lighting with Template:Color. The casing of the soul lantern blocks a part of the light and casts some shadows around the lantern.
Piglins
Soul lanterns repel Minecraft:piglins but not piglin brutes.
Piston interactivity
The soul lantern is destroyed when the Minecraft:piston tries to push it. It can't be pulled by the sticky piston.
