Vibrant Visuals: Magma blocks not emissive enough

Steps to reproduce :

  1. Create a flat world in creative Mode and give yourself various light emitting blocks.

  2. Set the time to Night and Place the light emitting blocks. Observe the emissive effects and overall visible glow.

  3. Place Magma block and observe the emissive properties and overall quality of its glow.

Expected result : The magma block should have a very obvious glow effect. Just like the Redstone lantern, Glowstone or even the sea lantern.

Actual result : The magma block does not appear to have any emissive effects similar to the other light emitting blocks.

Removing lava from the report, as that has already been reported at MCPE-222858 . You previously commented on that report, so you knew that it existed.

Magma looks plenty emissive to me. It’s only light level 3.

I completely forgot about that report. I swear I searched for anything similar. My bad.

And although in a dark place with nothing around - the magma block texture is bright - it doesn’t have any bloom or visible glow, like any other light block.

Not even a subtle bloom effect like Lava does.

And for a block that quite literally does output light.. even more than Firefly bushes (which are much more emissive looking compared) it should definitely look as such.
