About this Mod
⚠️ Development Status: Maintenance Mode
Feature development for this mod has concluded with version 1.21.3 (NeoForge).
As I focus on other projects (like DynamicEnchants), I will not be porting this mod to future versions of Minecraft.
However, I am still maintaining all current and previous versions. If you encounter any bugs or issues, please report them, and I will release fixes as needed!
🕯️ Torch Placer
Never fumble for torches in the dark again.
📖 About the Mod
This mod adds a unique utility enchantment that allows you to place torches directly from your tools, saving you hotbar slots and time while mining or exploring.
⚔️ How it Works
Once your tool is enchanted, simply Right-Click on a block to place a torch. Placing a torch consumes durability on the tool.
Tool Compatibility & Restrictions:
- ⛏️ Pickaxe: Can place torches on almost all blocks (except interactive blocks, farmland, or paths).
- 🪵 Axe: Can place torches on most blocks. Note: You cannot place torches on Logs unless they are stripped, OR if you are crouching.
- 🌱 Shovel: Can place torches on most blocks.
- * Note: You cannot place torches on Grass/Dirt unless you are crouching. ✨ Features
- Native Enchanting: You can obtain this enchantment directly from the Enchanting Table.
- Anvil Support: You can enchant books and apply them to tools via an Anvil.
- Crouch Mechanics: Added the ability to crouch and place torches on Grass (Shovel) and Logs (Axe), bypassing standard restrictions.
