piddy3825 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 As the title asks, did I just discover a new glitch? New stalker mode game, Ash Canyon and I just entered the gold mine. I fired up a regular red flare and began walking down the tunnels and of course got my socks and boots wet crossing the semi frozen water pools as I made my way to the center chamber where I hoped to retrieve the technical backpack. Will was complaining about having cold wet feet so I decided to change boots as i had two pairs in my possession. I didn't drop the flare, just toggled my inventory as I hit the "I" key on my keyboard opening my inventory. I used the clothing UI and changed boots and when I closed the menu the flare was no longer in my hand, nor on the ground but never the less the interior tunnel was still being illuminated. I walked the rest of the way to the main chamber and when I picked up a lump of coal before heading to the backpack, suddenly the flare reappeared in my hand... Now this sorta thing has never happened to me before, so I'm curious if anyone one else in the community has experienced this? It was defintely interesting and kinda nice not having the glaring flare in front of my face for a while! Now I'm wondering if I can duplicate this phenomena perhaps using a lantern? Imagine being able to transit and entire length of a cave basically hands free... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearimpaler101 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 There's already a way to do that with lanterns. Press the place button but don't place it it still lights up but it isn't in your face! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it as a problem necessarily because when you click on anything, say to pick up an item or to open a container or open a door, the light source immediately appears in my characters hand. Might be problematic however if the player were outside and subsequently was thrown into a wolf stuggle. I may just have to go test that sometime.
