[B18] Need a Light? Fire when you want it.

Need A Light?

Description:
This is a small mod that adds two tools (weapons) that start a fire when you want it. I created this so I could start things on fire without waiting around for molotov cocktails or the later game incendiary weapons.

Added tools are a flint & steel and a lighter. They can be crafted at a smithy.

There's a small chance pawns will burn themselves with while using these tools.

This is my first RimWorld mod, suggestions and feedback welcome.

Please post bugs here https://github.com/patrick-russell/NeedALight/issues

I'm not an artist, texture improvements welcome! Ask and I can provide the GIMP files.

Hi, nice idea.
I bet tribal/medivial player would love it to create fire.
What happen when you attack enemies with your weapons/tools. Does you ignite them too ?
Even when the tool's don't do much damage it is a powerful weapon since pawn's on fire don't fight back.

Raider can start fire's even without such tools.
Can't you find a way to create fire like raider's do ?
Select a pawn, then right click on an item/structure and get the menu entry Ignite.
That start a small flame.

Btw. you don't need to create an extra dropbox link.
Just create a proper github release, and link to your Github release page.

The spark 'projectile' does 1 damage but yes, it will set a raider on fire.

While making this, I did figure out how to make a pawn set something on fire like a raider or a pyro. However I thought having to make an item fit better for balance. I also think it's fun to run around with a zippo.

You're right about github, I just need to make the release. This is my first time using C# / Visual studio in a long time and I'm still learning how to use the debug / release stuff with the cookiecutter.

Thanks for checking out my mod!
