Extinguishable Torches
Place a torch and watch it die. Works server side, so have the server owner download this! It is a datapack, so only one person has to download for it all to work! However, you do need to download the resourcepack to avoid the textureless boxes of doom.
Resourcepack
Download the resourcepack here for proper functionality (if not already installed). All players must download the resourcepack if they don't want textureless boxes of doom.
How To Use
- Reignite torches by using a Flint and Steel or a Fire Charge.
- You can manually extinguish a torch by using a shovel.
- To uninstall safely, run
/function extinguishable_torches:uninstallthen disable or remove the datapack from your datapacks folder.
Info
Torch fuses are randomized from 10-50 minutes. The ability to change these times is not currently supported as of v1.0.0
There are a few known bugs that I am too lazy to fix right now. If enough people download, I might fix them.
Known Bugs
- Torches will not die out if placed from the corner of a block. To avoid this, make sure you place in the center of the block.
- You can place "invisible" blocks (e.g. torches, fire, grass) on the same block as the extinguished torch. To avoid this, don't do that.
Installation Instructions
- Download the datapack (.zip file or folder).
- Navigate to your "saves" folder and open your world (Often "C:\Users[YourName]\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\saves[WorldName]").
- Open the "datapacks" folder.
- Drop the downloaded datapack folder here.
