About
The Wall Torch is a variant of the standard torch designed to attach flat against vertical or overhead surfaces. It emits the same light level (15) as a regular torch but takes up wall space instead of floor space, making it useful for narrow passages, underground builds, and wall-mounted lighting schemes.
Wall Torches are stackable (up to 64 per slot) and fully diggable without tools. Spawn them with /give @p minecraft:wall_torch 1 or adjust the count as needed. They accept the same placement rules as regular torches, any solid block face, and will drop if their support block is removed.
