YCK's Auto Torch
by Yoacek
YCK's Auto Torch is a NeoForge item mod that places torches automatically when the light level drops low.
What it does
A toggleable Torch Placer item watches the light level around the player and puts torches down where the area is dark. Mining is the intended use, so the player can focus on digging while torches appear on their own. The check looks at the light level within a short distance and places torches a few blocks away as needed.
Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.4, with 2.5 for 1.21.4 as the latest file. The code is all rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Toggleable auto-placement
The Torch Placer can be switched on and off, so automatic torch placement only runs when the player wants it.
Light-level checks
The item checks the light level nearby and places torches in spots that fall below a set threshold.
Inventory-based torches
Torches are taken from the player's inventory, so the placer uses the supply the player already carries.

What the author says
This mod adds the Torch Placer item that allows you to focus purely to your mining. When turned on and torches are present in the user's inventory it checks for if light level is lower than 5 and places down a torch if so.
