AutoTorch is a simple yet effective Minecraft mod that ensures you’ll never be left in the dark again!
Features:
- Automatic Torch Placement: When your surroundings get too dark (based on a configurable light level), the mod will automatically place a torch to illuminate the area.
- Customizable Configurations:
- Set the minimum light level at which torches are placed.
- Add support for custom torches from mods (e.g., soul torches, modded torches, etc.) by editing the config file.
- Toggle On/Off: Enable or disable the auto-placing functionality with a convenient keybind (default:
Y).
Perfect For:
- Cave explorers who want to focus on mining instead of lighting.
- Builders working in dark areas.
- Players who use modpacks with additional torches and want them to work seamlessly.
Custom LightBlock Support:
With the configuration file, you can easily add your favorite modded torches or another light block, making it compatible with most modpacks.
Stay safe, stay bright, and let AutoTorch handle the lighting for you!
