Salem

I was thinking (yeah, happens from time to time).
1. Interiors in Salem are pretty dark. Stoves dont give much light as well as fireplaces in the mines.
2. Oil doesn't have many uses
3. Not many "decorative" things in salem.

How about:
1 iron bar + 2 nails + rope = Oil Lamp
This lamp can be attached to a wall of a mine. Has no collision. If mine wall gets destroyed so does the lamp.
Lamp would be refilled using 0,1 l of oil, can be filled with maximum 0,5l
Burning time after one refill: 3h20m (same as fireplace) (total: 16,5hrs when filled to max)
Cannot be placed outdoors.

Lamp post - for those living deep in the darkness and those that like when things look nice
5-6 iron bars + 4 nails + rope + (isinglass? would be weird glass pane? expensive) - Lamp post.
Same as oil lamp but placeable outdoors with collision.

The glass pane would not be that weird, as you can make a lamp out of 4 pieces of flat glass, rather than the more traditional blown glass "bulb" that many are used to seeing. I like this Idea a lot.

Strongly support.

Would love outdoor lamp-posts for the darkness, however, we already have equip-able torches for inside mines, and you can very easily make a fire ring inside a mine for more light over a long period of time.

Well yeah we have equipable torches. True that. Cant have them with your pickaxe on. Its just an convenience to the eye. Many people use mines as storages and lighting up torch each time is a bit of a nuisance. Proper interior/exterior lighting = less eyesore, more uses for oil, a lil' bit of decoration.

True we have torches, but carrying one doesn't allow us to use a pickaxe. I love this idea for mines and darkness. It serves a function as well as a cosmetic boost. Yes we can use fires, but wouldn't it be cooler to have lanterns or lampposts. It would also give us another reason for oil as well as isinglass which I support in favor of panes because they are almost worthless and would give us more reason to fish.

I'd like a higher tier torch, and lighting a mine sounds good. Even with ender's client on full brightness, the change in light hurts my eyes, but the oil lamp should last at least 3 days so it isn't being constantly refueled. I always forget to fuel my stove because it's too short and out of the way.
