About Mod:
This mods adds two torch holders, wooden wall torch holders and wooden ground torch holders. I added these as a buffer/cheap alternative to the Brass/Aged torch holders. 

Crafting the Wooden Torch Holders:
The wooden torch holders can be crafted by using any knife on a plank in the crafting menu. I decided to use planks to still keep the endlessly lit torch mechanic a bit further along then right off the bat use.

 

Recipe:
     - Plank-Knife

Current Holders:
     - Ground
     - Wall
     - Ceiling

Planned Workings:
     - None at the moment.

 

Feedback/Suggestions/Support:
I livestream on Twitch or Youtube (ad-free) monday-thursday (6pm est - 10pm est) Typically I play vintage story but on occasion might dive into a random game. I welcome suggestion and feedback on the mod in chat there or you can leave a comment below.

So far thats 3 unusual bugs I passed on. Not that I'm counting ;-)

💬 NateDoesLife , Apr 28th at 9:22 PM

Interesting bug hahah, I will take a look at it and see if I can put in a method to stop that type of situation from occuring! Might take me a little though, got lots of stuff going on right now =p

Also thank you for breaking down how to replicate it, actually very helpful with coming up with a solution!

Fixed now

Picked up a bug with the wooden torch holder. when placing a toolrack on the wall, and a wooden torch holder next to it. When clicking on the side of the torch holder, it deletes the toolrack (and everything on it) and replaces it with the wooden torch holder. Breaking the torch holder results in only the torch holder being returned and the toolrack is sent to the void.

Using VS 1.20.9, with NDL Wooden Torch holder 1.4.1.

Hi, didn't update the mod, but got the latest update of the game (1.20.8) and... now it works?

Not sure if it had to do with me playing on a server last week and now singleplayer tho.

💬 NateDoesLife , Apr 21st at 12:24 PM

All good, I will look around but I haven't had an issue on my end or any other reports.

I'd just have to ask if your using the latest version of the mod (v1.4.1) as I did do a bit of an overhual there.

Also could you try it in a fresh new world with only this mod active and let me know if the issue persist?

Sorry, was away on Easter.

Seems to be on all holders (wall, roof, floow). No errors in log.

Game version 1.20.7

Sounds like a graphical glitch.

Can you somehow link me a screenshot of the issue?
Is it replicatable?
Does it happen to all the torch holders you place or just specific ones?
Version of Mod and Version of Game?

Not sure if just OAK torch holders but the ones I crafted are pitch black like coal. Graphical glitch or is oak supposed to be charcoaled?

My castle's gonna be lit!

💬 NateDoesLife , Feb 25th at 10:37 PM

Ok, so I put some thought into it and laid out how it would probably need to be done (and done right). I currently started another mod project thats gonna take a bit of time but I will probably swing around to your idea here once I get that one up and running.

Key points
- It will be a config option that will be OFF by default.
- It will replace the torch with a extinguished torch, not just clear the torch out

I can't PROMISE I will go through with the idea, but its on my notepad for this mod =p

I mostly want the feature because of the functionality. Infinite lightsources kinda bug me :P

Just having the model at least revert to the empty holder when the torch runs out would already be a big improvement for my taste.

NateDoesLife

💬 NateDoesLife , Feb 24th at 5:01 PM

I will consider it but more unlikely then likely.

It would be a fair bit of work on my end for a feature that already exists in the game
     - New extingished models
     - Adding the functionality for this to the models
     - Build a config and integrate it to the mod

Do you want this request specifically for the models?

Stroomschok

💬 Stroomschok, Feb 23rd at 8:10 PM

Would you be able to make a version that where the torch does run out? 😍

💬 NateDoesLife , Feb 18th at 2:10 PM

Will take a look! Thank you for pointing it out!

💬 Eldritch_Warrior, Feb 18th at 6:09 AM

hey, noticed a small texture glitch on the ground torch holder on the inside of one of the legs, you can see it in the crafting window output image as well as when its placed, not to crazy or anything but thought id mention it since i noticed it right off the hop when making them

💬 BrownishStorm, Feb 16th at 9:15 PM

Thanks bro! aprechiate this one. Now I can get the apmisphere right in my castle without buring though tuns of metal.

💬 NateDoesLife , Feb 15th at 5:30 PM

Huh lol, I will look into that one asap! Thank you for reporting it!

Found an obscure bug. When all your handbasket slots, inven slots (1-10), and the offhand contains anything other than a torch, when you right click the wooden torch holder that contains a torch, the torch doesnt drop to the floor as expected with the brass torch holder, but instead dissapears into the void.

💬 NateDoesLife , Jan 14th at 4:01 PM

I actually tested this during the creation of the mod, and it didn't seem so during that time but hey if they happen to catch fire let me know and I will look into it.

💬 IILordTempestII, Jan 14th at 3:25 PM

I wonder if the torch holders can be set on fire themselves... are they burnable if attached to a block that is then set on fire?

💬 NateDoesLife , Jan 14th at 8:58 AM

Thank you very much, I just had to do a quick update to the mod though to adjust the light level and color to properly match torches.

Incredible, and the mention of possible standing torch holders? chefs kiss

Much appreciated for the hard work!
