Torches are always mounted on ceiling

[lkjoel]

The title says it all :). I'm trying to make a mod (nether) that will create a structure (throne of hades) that has torches in it, but they always think that they are mounted on the wall.
Since pics are worth a thousand and 5 words, I'll attach one:

And code:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

...
{pos={x=4,y=4,z=0}, block="nether:nether_torch"},
    {pos={x=4,y=4,z=1}, block="nether:nether_torch"},
    {pos={x=5,y=4,z=0}, block="nether:nether_torch"},
    {pos={x=5,y=4,z=1}, block="nether:nether_torch"},
    {pos={x=4,y=4,z=4}, block="nether:nether_torch"},

anyone?

I think torches are always like that. You could try FACEDIR, however, I think this wont work. Try making a special type of node for lighting. Mainly a cube.

Or lava_source blocks surrounded by glass nodes.

Thanks, I'll make a new torch node for this...

Just made one, no mapgen for it, just one node.
