If you played terraria, you know you can colour your torches. Hence im suggesting coloured torches! You would simply use dye while constructing the tourch, the dye for the torch will go anywhere in the crafting grid! Or you can colour existing torches in a craftless recipe, each dye colours 4 torches no matter what way you do it! Place 4 torches in the grid anywhere and have 1 dye and it dyes them all!, so you can die up to 4 stacks of torches at once! I dont know anything about coding so i really dont know how difficult it would be to do this at all...
Torches come in all colours but black, Instead of black, you can make a nether torch! you need netherack instead of coal to make it!, thing is, it only makes one so its not over powered way to get torches, these torches would emit a dark red black glow so its not that effective for anything but making a spooky area.
Tell me what you guys think! I think its a nice idea myself... People loved the coloured glass idea, so i though maybe coloured torches? It isnt hard to craft them since its dyes other than the nether torch and regular torch. Think of the things you could do with this!

But what do you mean the by dye colors 4 torches so does the dye gets turned into slightly less powerful dye or does it just generate 3 extra torches? Is there a way to turn torches back to there regular color? it's an alright idea but could use some cleaning up.(not trying to be rude just giving some constructive criticism)

I mean you place 4 torches in ranom spots on the crafting grid and one colour of die an idk if they can go back... ill figure somthing out.
As mentioned, this has been suggested numerous types before. It's still a fine idea though. Additionally, I know it's not a technical problem for implementation because at least one mod I know of has added colored torches.
Searched and found nothing, i love people that do this. Thanks for pointing out how fail the search bar is then!
You couldn't find a single one? Then you obviously have not been educated on how to search. I just did an advance search and came up with plenty of evidence that this has been suggested before. Besides that, in the quote I put up there are embeded links to the same topic that you are suggesting.
Locking this, because as people have said, this has been suggested many times before. But for the record, I did a general search (no advanced search parameters) in this section for "colored torches" and found a few that had "Colored Torches" as a title and very many other ones that had that in the body of the OP. Please make sure you actually glance inside the threads as some people put vague or silly titles.

actually notch updated the lighting system when he added smooth lighting, he even posted a screenshot of him messing with the idea of colored torches.
