Realistic Torches BT makes fire-based light sources behave more dynamically and immersive.

Features

Burn Times

  • Torches, lanterns, and campfires now burn out after a configurable time.

Environment Effects

  • Rain and water can extinguish light sources, with customizable multipliers.

Reignition System

  • Define custom igniters via JSON (e.g. flint & steel, matches, blaze rods) to relight extinguished torches, lanterns, and campfires.

Fueling System

  • Use JSON-defined fuels (like coal or sticks) to extend the burn time of campfires, lanterns, and torches.

Highly Configurable

  • All mechanics (burn times, extinguish behavior, dynamic lighting support) are toggleable in the config.

Data-Driven

  • Custom igniters and fuels are loaded from data/torchesbt/igniters/ and data/torchesbt/fuels/, allowing easy modpack or server customization without code.

Dynamic Lighting (Optional)

  • Toggleable dynamic lighting support.

  • Configurable via config/torchesbt.json5

  • Held and dropped torches and lanterns lose burn time while Dynamic Light support is enabled.

    • NOTES:
  • This mod is in a very early alpha state. Incompatibilities with other mods that modify torches, lanterns, or campfires are expected.

  • Gonna expand on this mod by slowly adding compat to other mods and adding new mechanics to keep torches, lanterns and campfires lit longer/indefinite
