Is there anyway to create permanent light?

Well you can do what I did, build firepits all over the place in the caves. Carry around a couple stacks of wood. Use those as mini bases or waypoints if you will. And use your miner hat or lantern for mini excursions. Gradual is generally better in the caves. I've been attacked by about 80 spiders at once, and it wasn't fun. I was lucky to survive it.

Ahh, regarding farms, after building, assumed you just need to guano them until they pop. I knew the light shaft was going away sometime. 

 

And I concur about perma light: Surface uses walled pig torches and caves uses unharvested light bulbs.

what i did was use the more plantables mod. its reallly helpful in everything. i have a very strong base in the caves and in the ruins because of my light bulbs around in my base. this mod basically allows you to plant a bunch of stuff including lightbulbs. so for perma light  use the more plantables mod

Hey guys, I figured out how to get permanent lights! When you start up a new game you can change a setting so that it says "day only"!(/sarcasm)

Taste the sun's shaft...of light.

Or the Camplights mod (though you do have to be near the lights for them to come on)

well you can debug spawn a maxwell light in but that would be cheating
