xanna Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 It's not something we can have in game, as @BugReportEnthusiast says, but it's a cool thing IRL and an interesting video! Thank you for sharing. I've often thought that when harvesting a lantern we ought to get a firestriker, but even that would be OP because firestarting is a core challenge of the game and we don't want to make it trivial at all.

DIA Posted September 18, 2023 Author Share Posted September 18, 2023 You're right. My lantern is lit by a match. It does not have automatic ignition. Perhaps to make matches a more important resource, you can light a lantern with matches. That is, a match will be wasted to light the lantern. And matches will be a very expensive resource!

I_eat_only_wolf_meat Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 The lamp in the game seems to be like a hybrid between a pressure lamp like a Coleman / Tilley lamp (because of what it looks like, the striker, and the noise it makes) and a normal hurricane lamp / kerosene lamp that uses matches, and could conceivably burn fish oil. I suppose you could light a fire with the flame of a Coleman lamp, but it would be very delicate and likely to cause you to break the mantle. You could easily light a fire with a hurricane lamp flame, but then you'd need a match to light it in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
