End Crystals are rendered dark when inside of a block

End crystals appear black.  Fill an end crystal with sand. make sure to leave some out. You will see that it is black. see video.
The End Crystal doesn't render when at the top of the screen.

How to Reproduce.

  • Summon and End Crystal.

  • Fill the space it is in with blocks (see pictures).

  • Make sure you have filled in the block the End Crystal occupies with sand or gravel.

  • Notice how it it totally black.

What Happened.

  • If you fill in the space the 'End Crystal' occupies with a block, it renders total black.

What I expected would happen.

  • It would just be partly covered by blocks while still retaining it's color on the outside of the block.

I recommend using .mp4 file type when you upload videos so Mojira can play them from the browser instead of the viewer having to download it. My computer doesn't have any apps that can run it so I'm unable to review your reports.

 

this will happen due to the fact an end crystal being an entity

I added a .mp4 version of the video for people like Codexe.

According to Minecraft Wiki (which can be wrong), this is intentional. 

 

"Entities are lit according to the light level of the block their position is in. For example, if a minecart runs over a non-straight track directly into a solid block, it turns black because solid blocks always have a light level of 0" ~Wiki

Can confirm that this is an issue. Also affects 21w16a. Relates to MC-223516.

I know this might sound like a 'Feature Request' but an easy to solve this problem is just in the next snapshot or something have when a block fills the space its in it blows up. Like if sand falls on it, it blows up. Idk Maybe?
