Sunset Torch

Environmentally friendly torches

Ever looked at your beautifully-built base at high noon and thought... why are all these torches blazing in broad daylight? It looks unnatural, and frankly, it's a bit wasteful!

Sunset Torch fixes that. Place a torch and it behaves the way a torch should:

• Blazes at night — full flame, full light, keeping mobs at bay
• Burns down to a dim ember in daylight — no need to blaze when the sun's doing the work
• Reignites reliably as dusk falls — before darkness lets anything spawn near your base
• Flares back up in storms (when the daylight level drops)

It adds a little realism touch and yes — turning the torches down during the day is, technically, very energy-efficient! Do your bit for your Minecraft world environment...

How it works

The torch reads the actual daylight reaching it. If placed out in the open or tucked under an eave in a sunny courtyard it dims. If placed deep in a windowless mineshaft or a dark room it always stays lit. Night falls, storms roll in, or you head underground- the sunset torch will be safely ablaze exactly as the original torch does. Works on floors and walls, just like a normal torch.

Crafting

Available from your very first day just like the existing torch : 1 coal or charcoal + 1 stick (side by side) creates 4 Sunset Torches Craft them, place them, and they behave exactly like the original torch but with the dimming feature.

Notes

• Requires Fabric Loader and Fabric API
• Torches relight promptly and reliably at dusk — your base stays protected through the transition.
