# đ¯ī¸ Throwable Torches
Turn your torches into throwable utility items.
**Throwable Torches** adds a simple and natural way to throw light sources in Minecraft. Instead of manually placing a torch every time, throw it in the direction you're looking and let Minecraft handle the placement.
## ⨠Features
* đ¯ī¸ **Throw Torches** — Throw normal Torches through the air.
* đĨ **Soul Torches** — Throw Soul Torches with their normal appearance and behavior.
* đ´ **Redstone Torches** — Throw Redstone Torches just like the regular torch.
* đŽ **Lanterns** — Throw Lanterns while preserving their normal standing and hanging placement behavior.
* đ¯ **Natural Projectile Physics** — Items travel forward with a natural arc and gravity.
* đ§ą **Normal Minecraft Placement** — When a projectile hits a suitable surface, it attempts to place the corresponding block using Minecraft's normal placement rules.
* âŠī¸ **Surface Bouncing** — If the hit surface doesn't allow placement, the projectile bounces/deflects instead of disappearing immediately.
* đĻ **No Item Loss** — If a projectile eventually stops without being placed, the corresponding item is dropped.
* đŽ **Configurable Keybind** — Throw using a dedicated keybind that can be changed from **Options → Controls → Key Binds**.
* đąī¸ **Default Middle Mouse Button** — The throw key is set to **Mouse Button 3 (Middle Mouse Button)** by default.
* âŦī¸ **Vanilla Drop Preserved** — The normal **Q** key still works exactly like vanilla Minecraft.
* đ **Server Authoritative** — Item consumption, projectile spawning, collision, placement, and item drops are handled server-side for reliable multiplayer behavior.
## đŽ How to Use
1. Hold a supported item.
2. Press your **Throw** key.
3. The item is consumed and thrown in the direction you're looking.
4. If it reaches a valid surface, it attempts to place itself normally.
5. If placement isn't possible, it bounces and continues moving.
6. If it eventually stops without placing, the item drops.
