Spelunker Helmets
Ever found yourself placing torch after torch just to see where you're going in caves?
Spelunker Helmets solves this by letting you attach light sources directly to any helmet.
Your light follows you everywhere you go — no need to hold anything in your hand.

-Explore caves without stopping
Mining and cave exploration should feel smooth, not interrupted every few seconds.
With this mod:
- Your helmet lights your way automatically
- You keep both hands free
- Exploration feels more natural and immersive

-Before / After difference
Caves without proper lighting are dangerous and slow to explore.
Spelunker Helmets changes that instantly.
