Gravity Torch

by HenryLoenwind

Gravity Torch adds a torch that, once placed, drops the block beneath it like sand or gravel does.

What it does

The Gravity Torch mod adds a mounting torch that can be crafted from cobblestone and placed in the world like other blocks. What sets it apart is that the block under it falls away, similar to how sand and gravel behave. Players need it on both sides: the environment is client and server, so the server and every player run it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source.

Key features

  1. Falling support block

    The block beneath a placed Gravity Torch falls away, behaving the way sand and gravel do.

  2. Waterlogging

    The torch can be waterlogged, and it goes out when it gets wet, then reignites like a candle once the water is removed.

  3. Simple crafting

    The mounting torch is crafted from cobblestone and placed like any other block in the world.

What the author says

The Mounted Torch is a rather simple thing. Craft it by mounting a torch onto a piece of cobblestone, then place it in the world just like any other block. What makes it special is that it will fall down if you mine away the block beneath it. Just like sand and gravel do. For 1.7.10: The rendering is thread-safe and…
