Item based player light sources is an enhancement I made for DFU, it's not in classic.

They go out either immediately or after a few seconds - it turns out that torches from the dungeons are almost useless. This does not depend on the player's characteristics, such as luck?

No, not at the moment, but I might incorporate that in the future. Try buying torches. Do they last longer?

Or just type 'add torch 1' in console.

Yes, it burned for a few minutes, after that I checked its condition, it says: slightly used.

Ok, so it went out after a few minutes?

No, I did not wait for it to go out, after a few minutes (probably 5 minutes), its condition deteriorated only to "slightly used", so it will burn for a long time, I can check.

Ok, I managed to reproduce the bug. It's weird. I'll take a look if I can find some way to have the dungeon torches be somewhat reduced in effectiveness without this happening.

Ok, bug fixed. For some reason, my 2-4 range had turned into 20-24 range, which made the taken torches way more damage than they were supposed to be.

Download the new 1.0.5 build and it should work much better, with taken torches being slightly worse, but not completely useless.

Now everything works perfectly, thank you very much!
I have a burning question, not directly related to the mod, but related to torches and lamps. Could you disable all messages that appear when you light, extinguish the torch/lamp and when it goes out? After all, everything is clear without these messages, but you still have to perform one extra action.
