the-aether-team / enhanced-extinguishing

An addon for The Aether, improving the extinguishing behavior of some blocks.

Enhanced Extinguishing

The Enhanced Extinguishing addon changes how placing Torches and Lanterns works in the Aether dimension. It removes the normal mechanic of disallowing their placement, and instead makes it so that placing these blocks will convert them into extinguished variants: the Extinguished Torch and Extinguished Lantern, respectively.

These two blocks resemble their lit counterparts, but both appear to have their flame extinguished and give off no light. This change makes placing these blocks more consistent with the behavior of other blocks in the Aether like Campfires and Candles, which convert to an unlit state. Similarly, breaking the Extinguished Torch and Extinguished Lantern will return their lit counterpart, just like Candles.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install The Aether and the Exhanced Extinguishing addon
2. Install Amendments (and optionally Supplementaries to test with the copper lantern, as I have)
3. Place lanterns via side block attachment (solid block wall, fence, etc.)

What You Expect To Happen

Lanterns place via side attachments from Amendments should automatically extinguish, same as when they are placed on the floor or ceiling.

What Actually Happened

I've provided a screenshot of a vanilla lantern and a Supplementaries copper lantern.
Each placed in both vanilla orientations, and I believe all of the side attachments added by the Amendments mod (side of a block, a fence post and a wall).
The vanilla orientations extinguish as expected, but the orientations added by Amendments remain lit.

Additional Details

The wall lanterns can still be extinguished manually, but can not be manually re-lit in the Aether as expected due to the forbidden use of flint and steel and fire charges.

I wasn't sure if I should report this here, or the main Aether page, as the Supplementaries copper lantern compatibility is included in the base mod. This was an issue with the extinguishing mechanic, so I though it fitting the report the issue here.

Please Read and Confirm The Following

• I have confirmed this bug can be replicated without the use of Optifine.

Ad Astra Compat

There should be compatability for Ad Astra, as Ad Astra has its own extinguished variants of Torches and Lanterns.
