Slightly Better Lanterns
I have always had a bit of a disappointment from the first time I finally got my hands on a lantern. The icon seems oddly out of place, the light is incredibly sterile and kind of blinding (turns out it is jus a recycled light source from packbeasts), and I always felt like it could have a bit more personality.
In terms of gameplay, the hip lantern is one of the only real traveling or nomad assistance in the game, and it has the unique feature of being the only portable light for playable characters. As a result, you’ll often find it being one of the only light sources available outside the safety of your own homes and outposts. It should feel like the warm source of help it really is, no?
This mod does the following:
_ Replaces the vanilla icon with a new and original one.
_ The light source is now a custom one. It will flicker, have an orange tint, is overall more dim, but has a large radius.
_ Changes are done to both the one that can be accessed vanilla in-game, and the unused version in the games files, as some mods use those accidentally.
