1.2: Fixed blue ceiling lights not giving off a blue hue, gave all lights a beauty effect, and gave green light a comfort effect as well.

Notes:The original mod author of Glassworks was ITOS.
If you would like to add either of these mods in your modpack, send me a pm and a link to the modpack. I will include a list of the modpacks with any of my mods on a seperate page. Also let me know if you remove it or discontinue the modpack it is in.

Simple as f#ck.. but i love it!
Will test it later on my colony.^^
Been looking for this! Will give it a go later tonight. I'm surprised we don't have ceiling lights in vanilla, tbh.
Thank you :)
np ;)
If anyone has a mod they wanted implemented that is simple and neat, tell me and ill see what I can do.
So, I placed some lights and now I can't remove them, and they're currently a massive drain on my power supply. The lights are all placed at the given areas, I can't place new lights in those areas and whenever a power source (Circuit wall etc) is close enough, they draw power, however I cannot select, deconstruct or remove them.

Could you give a step by step how you managed to do that. Did you try to save and restart the game? I have a small feeling that another mod is eating the floor lights.
Seeing as they are ceiling lamps, you could make it so pawns can be placed on the same tile as the light.
Removing the <passability>PassThroughOnly</passability> line should do the trick.
Although it will not really show the light bulb anymore when a pawn is on top of it, but it still emits light.

Can you select any installed lights near that area? If so, you could try to double-click a light that you can select, that should select all the similar items in your current view. You can then deconstruct them all at the same time.
It is weird though how they're completely gone from the view. It'd help alot if you could list the mods you are currently running and if they're alpha 8 compatible. :)
This is really interesting bug.. I will work on this as soon as possible. Lot has happened in my life and haven't gotten to look at this till now.
The bug you are experiencing is not something I could reproduce. The only things I can say is that it was another mod causing this problem or some unknown problem. Make sure all the mods in your mod-list are for alpha 8 and that any of your other light related mods modify a base class.
This mod was updated to Alpha 9. There was no compatibility issues as far as I can tell.
I think you forgot to update the download link, He's from 2 month ago ^^
I think you may be right XD
;D It's all good now, thank you ^^
If anyone misses this mod like I did...
I did manage to get it working with Alpha 10... don't know why I cant seem to get the graphic for it working but whatever....
I can post my changed Ceiling_Lamps.xml file but its likely easier to just change the file.
Go to Ceiling Light\Defs\ThingDefs\Ceiling_Lamps.xml (Notepad works)
All I did was add <leaveResourcesWhenKilled>true</leaveResourcesWhenKilled>
<filthLeaving>BuildingRubble</filthLeaving> at the bottom of the </ThingDef> category
(Looked like that was needed from poking around in the Core files and based on other posts I viewed about A9>A10)
Also in the <statBases> just change <MaxHealth>35</MaxHealth> to <MaxHitPoints>35</MaxHitPoints>
Still cant figure out why the graphic isn't working though
File if anyone wants that route

Hey! Ceiling Lamps is a working part of https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=11741.0
have a look there ;)
cheers
This mod is now updated to alpha 11. I have also resumed work on it so do expect new features. Make sure to re-read the main post about this mod, link there works as well.
Thanks for the update, much appreciated... new features would be awesome!
I'm sure it's not possible but you know what would be great, if you could put one of these above a table.

I will look into this because with the recent feature of how wires can be added to walls, it may just work out.

I have some ideas, I do ask though what colors of lights would you guys like to see?

Red <glowColor>(255,82,52,1)</glowColor>, Orange <glowColor>(255,132,0,1)</glowColor>, Yellow <glowColor>(217,217,217,0)</glowColor>, Green <glowColor>(180,255,0,1)</glowColor>, Blue <glowColor>(52,210,255,0)</glowColor>, Purple <glowColor>(185,61,205,1)</glowColor>. And for testing purposes it would be cool to see what a black light would look like, not sure what to use for glow color.

For the black light an intense neon blue or green?
So, I know we are talking about 'color'... But why not add in 'auto lights', too? Like after researching 'colored lights' let us research 'auto lights' that turn off when no one is in the room? As in, they detect when no one is present so they shut themselves off. Make it where they use 25 more power, and cost more. But yeah, its something I would love.

You can do this with the Auto switch mod i believe. http://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=2890.0

You can, but that requires someone to turn off the light. And I don't run wires to my lights anymore, I hide them in my walls; and let my lights connect to to them that way.
And by Auto lights, I mean they shut off automatically. Just like the alert light auto lights up when a signal is sent from the threat sensor. Something like that; The lights simply cost more and use more power, but will shut off if no one is in the room. I really want this, for ceiling lights so I am not using up power in every single colonist bedroom when they are not present; and since the rooms are only 5x5 I can't really run a switch in there and power line.

How about a ceiling fan with built-in lamp? It works like a lamp and a cooler (very weak, but don't produce any heat). It will be cool if you can make it animated.
Also, more powerfull lamps for bigger rooms , maybe even a small ceiling sunlamp, which you can place above your hydroponics.
Another suggestion - probably the hardest - RGB ceiling lamp - so you can choice the color you want (with sliders or choosing a preset from the list), instead of having a lot of different separate lamps (might be usefull when playing with a lot of differend mods)
And maybe a spotlight, which will illuminate area only in front of it, while there still will be a darkness under it and behind - usefull for base defences.

The ceiling fan is possible and ill ill put it on the todo. The RGB ceiling lamp has always been an idea but right now I am only making mods with xml files. If I was to do that I would need to code a bit and I dont know how to do that just yet. Also what is really holding me back is that I am not very good at coding so that would be a while.
This thread now holds glassworks+ and ceiling lights. Ceiling lights was also updated,consult change-log. Main forum post updated
Hi, I'm in China for a month because I'm on vacation, but due to the Great Firewall I cannot download the mod from Dropbox. So if you could add a github or a sendspace link, it would be greatly appreciated :)

@FuzzieMann An alternative link has been added for people like you. If you want to download ceiling lights mod then you will have to wait because I plan to do a merge of these two mods with the extra content im adding in the next release. If you have any other question or suggests, just let me know.
Mod works with 11b without any problem as well as the glassworks mod. Just use the same links as before.
Spoiler to upcoming events :)

Both should work with Alpha 11c without issue. Report here if otherwise
Hey there, could addition! I have one issue with it though. IT's ceiling lamp, so it shouldn't be an obstacle for for example work benches, the way power conduct doesn't disturb what's builded in the place, or for example A2B underground convey belt.
