Mekanism: Mekalights

⚡ MekaLights 1.1.8 ⚡ Energy Rebalance

New consumption model

• Maximum consumption raised to 24 kFE/t (sphere, at max range and intensity).
• Flat base cost per light (~0.5 kFE/t): tiny lights are no longer free (anti-spam).
• Per-shape multiplier — you pay for what you light up:
  • Disc — 7.7 kFE/t
  • Cone — 10.1 kFE/t
  • Cylinder — 12.5 kFE/t
  • Dome — 14.9 kFE/t
  • Sphere — 24.5 kFE/t
• Energy upgrades cut consumption by up to −16% (8 × 2%).

Cable lines now matter

• Basic: discs and small areas.
• Advanced: full spheres for your base.
• Elite / Ultimate: setups with dozens or hundreds of lights.

Recent improvements included

• Anti-flicker system: a light without enough power shuts off cleanly (no flickering, no lag) and warns in red ⚠ Needs X/t in the GUI and in Jade.
• Polished GUI: standard Minecraft inventory slots, centered debug button, no stray ghost icons.

⚠️ Note: this rebalance increases the consumption of already-placed lights (especially spheres). Make sure your networks still have enough power.
