ForgeClient or server, optionalAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

The mod checks the light level around the player about every five seconds. Where it is too low, it places a torch from the player's inventory, so the player does not need to hold one to keep the area lit. Either side can run it, and neither needs it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Automatic torch placement

    Torches are placed in dark areas near the player without any manual action.

  2. Torches from the inventory

    The player does not need to hold a torch; the mod uses torches stored in the inventory.

  3. Light level check

    The light level is checked about every five seconds to decide where a torch is needed.

Questions

Does Auto-Torches need to be installed on the server?

No. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so installing it on a client alone is enough.
