Fire Aspect Torch
by RandomNari
Fire Aspect Torch makes a held torch set entities and players alight when it strikes them, and it can also light campfires and candles.
What it does
Striking a player or entity with a torch sets it on fire. Copper, redstone and soul sand torches are also accepted, and the burn lasts longer with a soul sand torch, about 8 seconds, against 4 seconds for the other torch types. Hitting a campfire or an unlit candle with a torch lights it. The mod is distributed for Fabric and NeoForge, and it is a client and server mod, so both the server and every player need it. Files cover 40 release versions, 1.14.4 – 26.2, and the code is under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

Torch type durations
Soul sand torches burn targets for about 8 seconds, while normal and other torch types apply about 4 seconds.
Lights campfires and candles
Striking an unlit campfire or candle with a torch lights it, without any extra crafting step.
