      I was trying to test out the new beacon in my nether fortress and i encountered some issues.
      1: the beacon does not seem to activate unless there is a shaft leading all the way to the bedrock ceiling on top of it
      2: the beacon will never emit light beams in the nether.

      due to the way the nether differed from the over world and sky lands the beacon needs a different rule set for this dimension
