Description[edit]
Provides artificial sunlight to grow crops.
Crops need Water and sunlight to grow. If The plant is deprived of either, it will wither and die.
Guide (Farming) provides additional info on how to setup farming with hydroponic tray.
Illumination pattern[edit]
Lighting area is not a focused cone but roughly a half sphere reaches slightly further than one large grid. It is asymmetric however as shown in this top-down drawing.
Wall Mounting vs Ceiling Mounting[edit]
Illumination Radius is at its maximum 2-4 grids away which coincides with large grid size, so ceiling mounting has the best coverage of 41, against 37 of wall mounting. However this creates difficulty for Harvie as that can only be mounted on ceiling. Harvie also requires additional space for chutes on either side, so farming plots need to be two rows apart, negating the density benefit of ceiling mounting.
So when Harvie is expected, wall mounting is more flexible then ceiling mounting.
