Build and technical notes

• Jack o'Lantern is both a placeable block and a light source, emitting light level 15. That makes its spacing and exposure part of practical lighting design.
• The recorded collision shape is “block”. Collision is a gameplay property, so do not infer it only from the block's visible model.
• Jack o'Lantern is recorded as opaque. Its emitted light is 15 and its light-filter value is 15.
• Jack o'Lantern has 1 recorded Java block-state combination, so its base state is comparatively simple.
• Its recorded blast resistance is 1; this is separate from hardness and should be used for explosion-risk comparisons.

Java and Bedrock differences

• Jack o'Lantern is present in the tracked Bedrock registry only. Do not reuse its identifier in the other edition without checking that edition's current release.
