Reason: Update mod to version: 22.10.22
Adds illumination flares to light up dark places and night-time battles!
This simple mod adds four new items:
Flares
requires Machining
Crafted at Machining Table using 20 Wood and 40 Chemfuel
A pyrotechnic device for lightning up areas at night. When ignited and thrown, it lights up an 8-tile radius area for 90 seconds (approximately 2 in-game hours). Be careful! If it hits someone or lands in flammable material, it will light it on fire!
Flare Gun
requires Gunsmithing
Crafted at Machining Table using 20 Steel, 40 Chemfuel, and 1 Component
A simple gun that fires parachute flares that light up a 16-tile radius area for 60 seconds (approximately 1.5 in-game hours).
Chemlights
requires Machining
Crafted at Machining Table using 30 Chemfuel
A plastic tube with luminescent chemicals that glows when the glass capsule inside it is broken and its contents are mixed. It lights up a 6-tile radius area for 120 seconds, and doesn't have the risk of fire that flares have. Also comes in red, green, blue, and yellow!
Definitely not for light switch raves.
Also comes in a darklight variant for Ideology users!
Illumination Shells
requires Machining
Crafted at Machining Table using 5 Steel and 10 Chemfuel
A mortar round packed with a large parachute flare instead of explosives. When launched, it illuminates a 20-tile radius area for 90 seconds.
