tuxii Posted February 4, 2021 Report Share Posted February 4, 2021 Just throwing this out there I know there are mods that allow specifically for lanterns and tuna can lamps not consuming fuel and I would love to see it as a VIP perk on this server. I love to do some crazy old fashioned decorating using these items. 9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREENG1ANT Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 I'm surprised catgirl hasn't replied to this. It takes 4032 low grade to make a lantern last all wipe. Considering the current market on scourge this would only cost about 400 scrap. It would be pretty cool to add this in as a perk though. It would probably attract a lot more pure rp players to the VIP role. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKUDRUNNER Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I'm probably going to get called crazy for this, but I do believe this was a feature on our server, at one point in time, years ago. This was something I specifically remember being surprised about not having, when I returned to RustEZ this past fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vonblood Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 It was, if it wasn't early Scourge, then years back on the Survival server for sure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCE_Wraith Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 This was a VIP perk pre-electricity. I can only assume it was dropped because electric lighting is just generally better than tuna can lamps and lanterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure they're easy to fuel, but I would love to see a return of the unlimited lantern 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluthe Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 If we're adding things to the unlimited fuel wish list - candles would be great! I'd love to use them to highlight paintings and such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdl1st Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 Lanterns were unlimited fuel with VIP status, but if I remember correctly it was pulled to encourage people to use the electric system. I wish they would bring it back or make an electric lantern,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCE_Wraith Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 I also sometimes like the vibe of the Tuna Can Lamps and Lanterns, so I get it. Just gotta manage your LGF and lamps in the mean time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igorcraven Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 I'm all for this idea. I like the look of lanterns and lamps better than the current electric lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, some people will still use electricity. Don't worry about any of that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some instances where a touch of a glowing torch would be welcome over the harsh lighting of ceiling lights. Not having to think about the need to keep the lantern fed would definitely be a perk I could stand behind. Also, the candle idea would be wonderful! I found myself really disappointed to learn they burn off so fast! I barely got to enjoy them and do not see myself purchasing them from the RustEZ store nor other players again. Giving them unlimited use would greatly improve asthetics and give those who enjoy decorating a new item to work with. Can you imagine the uses?

I've actually been contemplating a lighting system using igniters, tuna can lamps, and sprinklers for a couple wipes now, because I enjoy the warm yellow light from the lanterns and tuna cans much more than I do the awful fluorescent-looking light from the ceiling lights.

Yami no TenRyuu Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 I thought of this too, unlimited fuel for lanterns at very least i love using them as outside and balcony decorations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a horrible idea for my past experience for the last time Death did it back early days of rustez for one wipe Unlimited lantern and lamps cause so much lag that the next wipe didn't have it.
