Color Stone Torches are 4 new colors based off of the classic Red Stone Torch. They interact with Circuitry just as a RSTorch normally would but carry a few lovely surprises (As demonstrated in the video). Blue can toggle water in an area, Purple can toggle lava in an area, and Green can terraform certain blocks. Orange (The new guy) is a tribute to Command and Conquer. It creates the ever popular Fire Wall. Careful, if it isn't pointed in a certain direction {aka, on a wall} it gets confused and spreads even in all directions (This is on purpose as it's just brutally epic). (There is a reason behind each one's craft recipe and ability so don't just think it's random)
Sun rise from my spacious underwater dwelling (1 Torch giving me 3x3x3)
Before (Orange off)
After (Orange on | Wall Mounted)
Orange without definite direction (On floor)
(Don't worry, I reduced this from 11 Diameter to 7 Diameter. 11 felt... large... but 7 feels a bit small... might make it 9. Depends on y'alls input {If y'all want it like this picture, just ask. I can easily bring it back to 11D or even 9D if you want between})
To-Do:
Convert to SMP - Getting There
Move all coding into a Metadata so it uses only 2 (Or even 1) ID's instead of 8. (8 is greedy)
Change color of Fire per torch - Working on this actively (It's a wee bit harder than it seems)
To Install:
Same as all other mods
Use WinRar or 7Zip to open the minecraft.jar file located in the C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\bin
then drag and drop all files from the ColorStoneTorch rar into the Minecraft.jar
Technically, there shouldn't be any reason to delete the Meta folder for this mod because it is all independent. If you Black Screen, then do it to be safe.
This shouldn't have compatibility issues with other mods because the classes are unique
Crafting Pattern:
Change Log:
V3.0 - Added: Green Torch Convert Sand and new Orange Torch (FireWall)
V2.5 - Fixed Green Torch Dirt - Grass
V2.1 - Fixed perpetual circuit burning with blue torch
V2 - Fixed Bug Crash with Blue Stone Torch
V1.4 - Changed Purple Torch Idle ID to 117 to avoid comparability with another mod
V1.3 - Changed Green Stone Torch recipe from using Slime Balls to using Seeds
V1.2 - Added unique abilities and crafting recipes
V1.0 - Color Added to RedStone Torches
Item ID's (Working on getting this down to only 2 ID's):
Blue Torch Active 110
Blue Torch Idle 111
Green Torch Active 112
Green Torch Idle 113
Purple Torch Active 114
Purple Torch Idle 117
Orange Torch Active 027
Orange Torch Idle 028
One Way Glass V0.5 (Currently for 1.2.6):
This mod adds in a craftable block (Glass with Smooth Stone to the right) that, when placed, has the side facing you as glass and the other 5 sides as Smooth Stone. Rather basic, but very nifty.
I'm working on something extra special for these things
Hint:
Each one does "something" unique
GreenStone Torch crafted by Slime Ball over RSTorch
BlueStone Torch crafted by Snow over RSTorch
PurpleStone Torch crafted by Obsidian over RSTorch
It has to do with either something near or pertaining to the added ingredient to RedStone Torches
Well, GreenStone Torch is a bit of a stretch but I wanted it to be a bit rare considering how powerful it can be (Especially in a place like Nether)

maybe you could make any redstone wire the torches attach to turns to the torches color?
maybe have the colors mix if the different color wires connect?
So many possiblities with this mod
Version 1.2 is now out. It features the unique abilities I talked about earlier.
Blue controls water in a certain radius (3x3x3)
Purple controls lava in a certain radius (3x3x3)
Green can terraform certain blocks (5x5x5) and spread grass over dirt (3x3x3) {Faster than growing it normal}
The reasoning:
Blue = Water, that one is easy
Purple = Obsidian (It's Purpley) and Obby is found near and from lava
Green = Terraforming, nifty, Slime Balls? idk, maybe the germs cause a rapid grown rate in plants?
If y'all want, for aesthetic reasons, I can code it where it forms things in circles (Controls water in a circle, controls lava in a circle, terraforms in a circle) instead of a square.
If you have any suggestions for other colors and abilities, I'm always open for new ideas!

hey, as i said, could you modify the torch's colour itself?
You mean like the wooden part tinted to the color of the torch or the actual red fire that comes off of it to be changed?
Also, I'm working on changing it up so that water cannot take out a Blue Torch and lava cannot take out a Purple Torch (When in off state)
Also, Coming out tomorrow, One Way Glass (For now just SSP). It's an easy to hide block that has one side and one side only acting as glass, the other 5 faces act as whatever material you have crafted it to be
(As of now, only Smooth Stone is available)
This will be V0.5 since there is only 1 type available and it's not for SMP yet

For some obscure reason, the download link does not work for me :sad.gif:
does anyone have an alternative DL link? I was really looking forward to this...

Change Log:
V0.5 - Added Smooth Stone version of One Way Glass

This is a great idea!
It'd be awesome if you could change the colour of the torch itself, so yes :biggrin.gif:
Great job!

Easy fix give me a minute
Edit: Ok V1.3 is uploaded (Changed Slime Ball to Seeds in recipe)

This mod is currently for SSP (Single Player) only. I'm going to be working on converting it into a Hey0 plugin for servers
Seronis, you mean like ColorStoneTorch_1.3 or whatever?
Yea I need to so people know what version they have.

EDIT: I'd love it if you could change it to IDs compatible with all mods :biggrin.gif: On a fresh Minecraft.jar this mod works fantastic.
