I saw the github issue. Torches burning you may be realistic, but Trees also don't fall in this game when mined. Please reconsider this. Great mod except for this. I have died too much because of this.
Ethereal adds Crystal Armor which gives the player different levels of fire protection, and wearing a single piece stops torches from harming the player, 3 pieces for actual fire protection and 5 for lava.
If using 3d_armor mod it has a setting called 'enable_fire_protect_torch' you can change to disable torch damage though :)
I ended up just commenting out the code that deals damage.
I still don't think this should be a feature at all. It took me a while to even realize this was the mod doing it (i used to think it was minetest_game until i ran a grep). People place torches on walls and the floor all the time, and those clip you and deal damage. For new players without armor, this can be annoying.
Torches dont do this in the base game for a very good reason. Please disable it, or at least make it an option server admin can enable, disabled by default preferably. Or maybe offer a safe torch that doesnt do this.
(apologies if this comes off a negative review, its just a bit that bothered me, this mod is incredibly well done!)
Ethereal mod does not make torches harm the player, that falls to 3d_armor mod which has a specific 'fire_protect_torch' setting you can set to false that disables torch damage.
