--[[
A note about default torches, melting, and "buildable_to = true" in default snow.

On servers where buckets are disabled, snow and ice stuff is used to set water for crops and
water stuff like fountains, pools, ponds, ect.. It is a common practice to set a default torch on
the snow placed where the players want water to be.

If you place a default torch *on* default snow to melt it, instead of melting the snow is 
*replaced* by the torch. Using "buildable_to = false" would fix this but then the snow would no 
longer pile-up in layers; the snow would stack like thin shelves in a vertical column.

I tinkered with the default torch's code (see below) to check for snow at the position and one 
node above (layered snow logs as the next y position above) but default snow's 
"buildable_to = true" always happened first. An interesting exercise to better learn how Minetest 
works, but otherwise not worth it. If you set a regular torch near snow, the snow will melt 
and disappear leaving you with nearly the same end result anyway. I say "nearly the same" 
because if you set a default torch on layered snow, the torch will replace the snow and be 
lit on the ground. If you were able to set a default torch *on* layered snow, the snow would
melt and the torch would become a dropped item.
