Is there a way to place light emitting torches in devtest game?

I looked through most of the objects in the bag but cant find any for torches that actually emit light?

Search for "light" and place one of that light source nodes.
he/him; Codeberg; GitHub; ContentDB; public personal TODO list; "DS" is preferred (but often too short)

It's the light test nodes with the numbers 1 to 14. Real torches don't exist, only the nodes that test the "torchlike" drawtype. The reason for that is the principle of least interference. This means a test node should test one thing and one thing only, ideally, in order to minimize side effects.
