Craft Your First Colored Torch
Basic Crafting Recipe
Colored torches follow the same crafting pattern as vanilla torches, but use dyed sticks instead of regular ones.
1. Prepare dyed sticks: Craft regular sticks, then combine them with dye in a crafting grid to create dyed sticks. You'll need one dyed stick per torch.
2. Gather coal or charcoal: Collect coal from mining or charcoal from smelting wood logs.
3. Craft the torch: Place one dyed stick above one piece of coal/charcoal in a crafting grid (vertical arrangement, like vanilla torches).
4. Collect your colored torch: You'll receive colored torches matching your dye color.
Tips
- Each dye color produces a corresponding torch color—red dye makes red torches, blue dye makes blue torches, and so on.
- You can mass-produce colored torches by dyeing multiple sticks at once, then crafting them in batches.
- Colored torches function identically to vanilla torches: they provide light, prevent mobs from spawning, and can be placed on blocks and walls.
