Show more data on activities, torch lifetime

[GrimerX]

It would be good to have a rough idea of how much torch life is left without having to re-equip it. I like the idea of not being too precise, so maybe an indicator icon in the lower left.

Would be good to show an estimate of time needed for various cooking activities before you choose them. Everything else has an estimated time.

Cheers,

Just press "i" and check your inventory for the torch. The condition of the torch is the percentage of the burn-time left. If you want to find it more quickly, select the Tools sub menu.

I would like some indication that a torch is almost burned out. This could be some icon, or the duration bar re-appearing but the torch could also start to sputter, giving you a visual and audio cue.

I agree! I was just thinking this last night.

Thanks - I know about this condition indicator. I meant when holding the torch. Mainly I want to know if it's below 25% or not so I can plan for it going out if it's close and I'm using it to hold off a wolf.

Having your character say "This torch is almost spent" when the torch is at 10% would be awesome.

Gets old pretty quickly, though...

Yeah, but not nearly so annoying as hearing "It's getting dark, I need to find shelter soon" while standing on the porch of my base, or "I hope nobody needs this anymore" while picking up a stick...
