Torcherino

What it does Torcherino adds a set of torches that increase the tick rate of nearby tile entities and random block ticks. In practice this means furnaces smelt faster, crops grow faster, and mob spawners produce mobs more quickly. The mod includes a base torcherino plus lantern and jack-o-lantern variants for each tier. You place one, right-click it, and use the GUI to set the horizontal radius, vertical range, and speed multiplier up to the tier's maximum. ## Who it suits This mod fits players who run technical or automated bases and want to accelerate machine processing or farm output without changing game rules globally. Server administrators also get tools to limit the effect: a config file lets you blacklist specific blocks or block entities, log placements for lag investigation, and restrict torcherinos to run only when their owner is online or after a login since restart. ## Verified capabilities - Tiered torches with adjustable area of effect and speed multiplier via an in-world GUI. - Affects both tile entity ticks and random block ticks such as crop growth. - Lantern and jack-o-lantern variants exist for every registered tier. - Configuration file at config/sci4me/Torcherino.cfg controls random tick multiplier, placement logging, blacklists, online-mode behavior, and custom tier definitions. - API available for other mods to query tiers and manage blacklists programmatically. ## Compatibility caveats - Requires both client and server installation. - Supports Fabric and Forge loaders. - Tested Minecraft versions: 1.18, 1.18.1, 1.18.2, 1.19.3, 1.19.4, 1.20, 1.20.1. - Licensed under LGPL v3.0 only. - Custom tiers require you to supply block state, model, texture, language, loot table, and recipe files; the mod registers the blocks and adds them to its internal blacklist automatically.
