Description

Designed to fit into Minecraft's lore as closely as possible, while providing a more challenging early game experience and encouraging players to use powered, magical, and bioluminescent light sources.
An open source mod built for Fabric (works on Quilt, too). Requires Fabric API and owo-lib. For more in-depth information regarding the project, read the wiki 📖.
Inspired by Realistic Torches, thank you MattCzyr!
✨ Features
- 💡 Dynamic lighting is fully supported with LambDynamicLights.
- 🌧 Candles and torches will extinguish when rained on.
- ⏳ Campfires, candles, jack o' lanterns, lanterns, and torches will extinguish over time.
- 🔥 Bring unlit torches to life during your adventures with fire, lava (flowing, standing, or even in a cauldron!), or flint and steel.
- 🏊 Wading, swimming, fully submerging in water, or getting rained on can cause jack o'lanterns, lanterns, and torches to extinguish.
- 💪 Glowstone lanterns and torches for mid/late-game which are waterproof and never die out.
- 🧯 Torches, lanterns, and jack o' lanterns extinguish when stored in chests (disabled by default).
- 👷 Villagers prevent any extinguishing in a configurable cubed radius, no more dark villages.
- 📄 Configurable with files or the settings page provided by integration with Mod Menu.
⛔ Compatibility
Should work with most mods that don't modify torches, lanterns, campfires, candles, and jack o' lanterns in an intrusive way.
- Hardcore Torches is incompatible.
📥 Downloads
Officially available at CurseForge, Modrinth, and GitHub.
🛣️ Roadmap
- Finish wiki.
- Add events for developers.
- Extend inventory behaviours to mobs.
- Integrate Jade tooltips.
- Attach to Villager and Allay AI brains to ignite unlit torches, lanterns, jack 'o lanterns, and campfires in a fun way.
