. . . when I learned you can layer different color glass on a beacon beam to create different shades of any color.
Seems to work up to 3 colors. The first color the beam becomes the main color with the 2nd and 3rd colors adding different hues.
1st image: Light blue
2nd image: light blue and white
3rd image: light blue, white and purple
If you add 2 more purple to the stack of glass if veers more towards purple after the 1st block and then the 1st two colors are ignored by the 3rd block of purple glass (so light blue, white, purple, purple, purple).

There’s actually a really complicated equation it uses to choose the output color. You can see exactly how it works on the wiki.
This gets even crazier when you realize there is no limit, the effect just diminishes as you go higher. So essentially if you have a redstone setup that works like an abacus but for glass hues getting pushed by pistons that run on say a 2 tick clock, you can create a real rgb display on the beacon! It looks insane and I definitely recommend trying to build it in creative at least once. This game is wild man…
Wait… this looks so similar to the Hive Bedwars minihub that’s crazy…
or is it just me
