The Manasteel Pickaxe is able to place vanilla torches but not the Terra Shatterer which I feel is a bit of a downgrade. The Shatterer should be able to place vanilla torches (support for TiCon's stone torches would be awesome too) via right-clicking with the ability activation be relegated to shift right clicking.

The Terra Shatterer does place torchs, via shift-RC, do you want the controls to be inverted?

Shift right clicking activates the Shatterer's ability for me.

TPPI2 has version 170. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ Oh well.

See at version 186

I just upgraded to version 190, shift right clicking the shatterer does not place torches. It only activates or deactivates it.

Ok, so I will try to reproduce.

I can't reproduce using my custom build straight from Github, so this issue has been fixed in at least the latest github source code. Maybe check your keybindings?

I couldn't find any options for Botania keybinds.

Because Botania doesn't have keybinds

No wonder I couldn't find them.

@UntouchedWagons is this happening for you with only Botania installed?

I'm on 189 and TS places torches just fine. Are you sure you HAVE torches in inventory?

Can't reproduce.
