i was working on a pretty laggy qualia and replacing some brick blocks with white lamps, and when i came back into the world the lamp block had reverted to bricks, but the light source still existed. breaking the brick left empty space that a block cannot be placed inside of. i tried hate wand to no effect.
no images rn due to discord flatpak permissions, not that an image would help much. if you need a zip, i will do so
#lamp's light without the block

known issue kinda caused by living block desync
unfortunately we don’t know any fixes

i don't understand "living blocks", what are the game systems behind the issue?

basically the block itself doesn’t actually make a light source
it has a “living block” counterpart which handles that (same for all chests types and anything with a model that isn’t just a cube or foliage)
they’re normally tied very tightly, when you place the block, the living block gets placed in same location, same for breaking, so normally impossible to desync, unless world data corrupts, as they are saved in separate locations
tldr fancy blocks get two parts and you managed to separate them

yes, but why not some cleanup function that removes desynced living blocks when a chunk is loaded? the light obviously stores the position of the lamp
