A hardcore addon for Realistic Torches: rain, snow, cauldrons, and splash water bottles will now realistically extinguish your torches!

Wet Torch Mechanic — is a small yet highly immersive addon for the Realistic Torches mod, designed for hardcore and realism-focused modpacks.

Have you ever wondered why your torch keeps burning brightly while you're swimming across a river or standing under a heavy downpour? This mod fixes that oversight! Now, water and weather conditions will become your true enemies while exploring the world.

✨ Key Features

Weather Reaction: Burning torches in your hands (both main and off-hand) will instantly extinguish if you step out into the rain or enter a snowy biome during a snowfall.

Water Bodies & Cauldrons Danger: Submerging in water or jumping into a water-filled cauldron will strip you of light.

Dropped Items Physics: If a burning torch drops from your hands and lands in a puddle, river, or remains exposed to rain, it will hiss and turn into an unlit item.

Potion Interactivity (Splash / Lingering Potions): Throwing a splash or lingering water bottle now actually matters! When shattered, it will extinguish torches in players' hands, dropped torches on the ground, and even placed torch blocks within the blast radius.

Immersive Effects: The extinguishing process comes with a vanilla hiss sound, smoke particles, and a brief flash of steam to the face that applies a 1-second blindness effect.

Hardcore Mode (For Masochists) By default, the mod only extinguishes torches in your hands. However, you can enable Hardcore Inventory Mode in the config. If enabled, full submergence in water will soak your backpack, turning all burning torches in your inventory into unlit ones. Cross rivers with caution!
