Signal Flares (Diversion Lure Replacer)

Description

Designed for the "No HUD" and "Immersive" gameplay, provides a functional way to illuminate dark environments.

Main features

Visual Changes: Replaces the generic lure effect with a bright red flare and lingering red smoke.

Extended Burn Time (FX): Increased the duration from 5 seconds to 40 seconds.

They still function as vanilla diversion lures (will only lure enemies in the first 5 seconds).

Limitations

I have tuned the duration to the maximum allowed by the game engine.

• []FX Burn Time: ~44 Seconds (Red smoke and light source).[/]

  []Item Persistence: ~50 Seconds (The physical item remains on the ground before despawning).[/]

  []Hard Limit Note: Breakpoint has a hardcoded parameter limit on how long throwable entities and their particle FX can exist. Even if the timer is set to 999 seconds in the files, the game will force the entity to despawn around the 45-50 second mark. Therefore, I cannot extend the duration any further than what is provided in this mod.[/]
