This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of Minecraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

RealisticsTorches v1.4.1
Add realism to your torches!

Because pictures are always better than thousand words:

You want to know what this simple plugin does? Fine. This plugin makes torches burn out after a certain amount of time and it can also make torches break or disappear when it's raining (only if they are touched by rain, not if they are protected). It's multiworld capable plugin, so for example they can only activate this plugin on a "adventure" world or have different settings for each worlds.

Feel free to post your suggestions, remarks or anything like that.

Please use zwarmapapa's version (even if his code syntax can be improved).

Since this plugin is outdated, and I'm currently maintaining it, do I got permission to make a dev.bukkit.org page for it?

Hey! Glad to hear someone's picked this back up. I'll be adding it to my server later.

Because I had some jack-o-lanterns flying, they got turned into flying pumpkins. Now, to make them jack-o-lanterns again, I had to put a block beneath it in order to do that, which was more work than needed. Now I updated this plugin to v2.1.0, with the following changes:

Download link: Download link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7174774/dl/RealisticTorches.jar

v2.1.0 changes:

you can now change pumpkins to jack-o-lanterns by punching them with a torch

you can enable/disable this

you can choose howmany torches it will cost to do this

PS: I also changed the pumpkin to jack-o-lantern (in the config file), because pumpkin is now beeing used for the new settings.

The author of this plugin gave me the sources, and altho I have never created or edited a bukkit plugin before, I updated this one (and made some small modifications) so it can be used again.

Download link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7174774/dl/RealisticTorches.jar

v2.0.0 changes:

changed the name from 'RealisticsTorches' to 'RealisticTorches', since the 's' after 'Realistic' was probably a mistake (also counts for the folder name)

removed the option to choose which world it would be active in, this plugin is now active in every world, always

removed the 'ItemToDrop' and 'drop', added dropStick, explanation:

torches will now always get removed, and drop a stick if torch.dropStick is true

Jack-O-Lanterns will now always turn into a pumpkin, and drop a stick if pumpkin.dropStick is true

Why is the config file resetting all the time? I got:

world1:
    ItemToDropJack-O-Lanterns: 86
    DropJack-O-Lanterns(Burnout)?: true
    DropTorches(Weather)?: true
    WeatherIsEnabledJack-O-Lanterns?: false
    ItemToDropTorches: 280
    WeatherIsEnabledTorches?: true
    DropTorches(Burnout)?: true
    BurnoutDelayJack-O-Lanterns: 0
    DropJack-O-Lanterns(Weather)?: true
    BurnoutDelayTorches: 300

and it gets resetted back to

worldname:
    ItemToDropJack-O-Lanterns: 86
    DropJack-O-Lanterns(Burnout)?: true
    DropTorches(Weather)?: true
    WeatherIsEnabledJack-O-Lanterns?: true
    ItemToDropTorches: 280
    WeatherIsEnabledTorches?: true
    DropTorches(Burnout)?: true
    BurnoutDelayJack-O-Lanterns: 300
    DropJack-O-Lanterns(Weather)?: true
    BurnoutDelayTorches: 300

every server startup.

Got a small bug that I've noticed for a while, figured a dev would have come along and fixed it at one point or another.
Torches under glass blocks still get knocked out when it rains/snows.

Sorry @all but I don't have much time to work on all my projects. I won't update this plugin for a while so that's why I made it inactive. If any other dev' want to take care of it, just PM me.

It's still working for me and I'm using the current RB.

Here's my config for an example.

world:
    ItemToDropJack-O-Lanterns: 86
    DropJack-O-Lanterns(Burnout)?: true
    DropTorches(Weather)?: false
    WeatherIsEnabledJack-O-Lanterns?: false
    ItemToDropTorches: 280
    WeatherIsEnabledTorches?: true
    DropTorches(Burnout)?: false
    BurnoutDelayJack-O-Lanterns: 1200
    DropJack-O-Lanterns(Weather)?: false
    BurnoutDelayTorches: 300

Ah, seconds . . . so then, I'm guessing Realistic Torches is not functioning with the current recommended build?

I say this because with a 300 setting I've yet to see any torches burn out.
