How it works​

The Glowstick is a beacon of second sight. Right-click it to raise it, and every creature within 24 blocks is outlined through walls, coloured by its kind. The glowstick flares — players yellow, hostiles red, neutrals white, friendlies green.

Creatures that wander in later light up as well. Right-click it again to lower it. The glowstick gutters out.

Good to know​

  • A raised Glowstick stays raised when the server restarts.
  • Breaking the glowstone heart winds the field down.
  • Glimmer Dust gives the same sight to you alone, wherever you walk.
