Using lantern fuel as accelerant

[Rifleman]

It's not designed to do that but it's still flammable.

+1 for this!

It's one of the first things that bugged me when I started to play.

I'd also add that when you're harvesting a lamp, you'd be able to gain some of the fuel contained inside along with the x2 scrap metal, instead of loosing it.

Also I never used this type of lantern, but I suppose thay have a mechanical ignition device similar to those you can find in a lighter. I'd love to be able to dismantle part of the lamp to use it if you're running out of matches.

I haven't checked recently, but:

1) You can use lantern fuel as accelerant, it just takes quite a lot (0.30 liters, I think)

2) The fuel from a harvested lamp is not lost as long as you have a fuel canister or bottle in your backpack with spare capacity that can hold it

Didn't know that, thanks!
