Mixed Candles

A Minecraft mod for NeoForge that lets you merge up to four candles of different colors into a single block.

Ever wanted to combine your dyed candles into one multi-colored candle arrangement? Mixed Candles adds a mergeable candle block that stacks up to four candles of different colors — rendered exactly like vanilla's stacked candles, including the staggered heights.

Features

• Merge candles: Place a dyed candle, then place more dyed candles of different colors into the same block — up to 4 candles per block.
• Vanilla-style heights: Combined candles use the same staggered heights as vanilla stacked candles (short, medium, tall), so a 3- or 4-candle block keeps the familiar look.
• Individual colors: Each candle keeps its own color and texture.
• Light & extinguish: Ignite the whole block with a flint and steel; extinguish it with an empty hand. The differences in height remain either way.
• Breaking drops: Breaking the block drops every candle as its own colored candle — nothing is lost.
• Persistent: Merged candles survive saving and reloading.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.1
• NeoForge 21.1.235 (or a later 1.21.1 build)

Installation

1. Download the latest mixedcandles-*.jar.
2. Place the .jar file into your Minecraft mods/ folder.
3. Start the game with the NeoForge 1.21.1 loader.

Usage

• Place a dyed candle (already available from the vanilla game).
• Merge by placing a dyed candle of a different color onto an existing mixed candle block — up to four candles in total. All candles in a block must be of different colors.
• Light the merged block using a flint and steel (or fire).
• Extinguish it by using an empty hand on the block.
• Break the block to collect each candle separately in its own color.
