Ive made this simple little mod, it contains a small torch, takes 1 log to build, glows for 5 minutes (editable in xml def) and lets of a small puff as it dies.

Enjoy!

well now you went and made me want to make a Tiki Torch for the game. And I already have several projects going. I'm going to go ahead and add in a tiki torch texture to my list of things to do when I get frustrated with my main project.

skullywag

feel free to beg steal and borrow all my code to do it. :)

I may add anims and more smokepuffs tomorrow if itll help?

Great to see this made available for everyone.

On a side note, I don't mean to toot my own horn but this is the second mod created because of a thread I started. I believe the thread was titled: One Square Wide Tables, here is a link: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=4301.msg42243#msg42243

I just came up with the ideas and apparently, people liked them enough that a modder decided to make them.

Have you managed to fix the bug I mentioned in another thread? I have tried to make another set of torches but the bug still resides.

The one where it doesnt build?

I put a reply on that thread. Ive retried it and i can build them totally fine. Can you try with no other mods?

I'll see what I can do. Give me a little while.

Updated this, now follows the campfires way of doing this so as to fit with core better, now lasts 9000 ticks (was 18000) due to the campfire last 40000 and this only taking 1 log, I felt the extra management balanced the lack of mats needed, heats to 15 and lights to 4 cells. Im really not sure what use this hasnow the campfires in but meh...
