What's the mod about?
Regular torches get replaced with Flimsy Torches
Flimsy Torches burn through 4 states until fully depleted
Put torches in lanterns to make them last longer
Campfires burn through 5 states until fully depleted
Beware: A blazing campfire (max state) can spread fire to nearby blocks
Torch scraps can be salvaged to get some coal back
Villagers replace nearby torches as they burn out
Regular torches can still be obtained with additional effort!

- Regular torches can be crafted using Flimsy Torch and Magma Cream
