This suggestion might have already been made but I think it would be beneficial to increase a players light radius while they are holding any type of torch in their hand. As it seems now the torch has to be placed for it to be of any use but for times when you may just need a small amount of light to get through a tunnel or anywhere else you don't particularly want to leave torches burning, I think this would be a good alternative.
This has been suggested before, but seeing as you are newly spawned, I will go easy on you. This would be difficult to program as stated by people in other topics. It's probably possible to program it through some method, but we can't count on that. No support.
How would it be hard to program? I have seen mods for this that actually work, if a modder can do it, im sure a professional coder who works purely with the games code can manage to do it.
I think about 1-2 levels of brightness would be good, just enough to light the way but not bright enough if your caving or going into really dark places
I went off what other people have said. I guess if mods can do it, mojang can do it, so I change my stance. I now have no opinion.
This could be done with a shader easily. Basically it just makes it look like it is brighter around the player when he is holding it, without changing the light levels of actual blocks. Because mobs won't spawn within like 15 blocks of a player, nobody would know the difference.
But either way, been suggested before. Please search before posting.
