Handheld Colored Torches

Description
Makes torches from Colored Torches mod emit light when held in hand by using scripts from Handheld torches mod.

What's new:
1. 8 new objects with supported functionality:
- medievalcandle.
- medievaltorch.
- medievallamp.
- copperlantern.
- tier1light.
- oillantern1.
- lunarbaselantern.
- apexfightlantern.

In order to get handheld version of an object, you have to break it and it will drop a corresponding item, unlocking the conversion recipe (crafted at hands). Or you can just spawn them. IDs are handheld[object name].

2. New mechanics - press Shift + Fire to switch between placement and toggle modes. Default mode is placement mode.

3. Improved placement preview for objects with handheld functionality.

If you want dynamic lighting as shown on the images, you need a patch for it: Handheld Colored Torches - Tanz Lighting Patch.

Good afternoon!

I found an issue with the mod and would like to help fix it. I feel like it would be hard to explain in a comment so I added you as a friend.

These recipes were indeed missing. I forgot to add them to default unlocks, but it is fixed now

Thanks much appreciated. For the longest time I was wanting a mod that applied Tanz's lighting to the hand held torches. Gives a nice touch of realism and a bit more balance/challenge to the game. And then you made your lovely mod with even more handheld light sources, which totally makes sense!
Thank you for all of this!

I'm glad you like it. About recipes, hmm i'll check that, the reason behind that is (probably) because this mod alters recipes for these items to yield new .activeitem instead of .object. That is definitely not intentional

I like the look of this mod, however it, or the Tanz Lighting Overhaul Patch, appear to remove Copper Oil Lanterns and Iron Lanterns from the Wooden Workbench. Is this intentional?
