📋 About This Mod
The Illumination Flare ArrowHead never gave us. Causes most grenades to fire off a flare into the sky when they explodes, illuminating a respectable area around itself for roughly 20 seconds!The perfect option for night missions or dark
If you wish, you can Support me on Ko-Fi so i can keep making stuff, thank you! (Only do this if you are in the financial situation to do so and think it is 'worth it'!)
Alternatively you can endorse the mod. it triggers the positive feedback loop of "i make things, people like those things, I want to make more things!" ya know?
-Dont forget to endorse other mods you like too! every endorse helps that mod out.
Includes 5 color options, White, Red, Green, Blue, and Orange.
Known/potential issues
- May affect other explosions
- small chance some random explosion somewhere will also spawn a flare instead of the explosion. so be on the lookout for that (not that i can do anything about it)
- Flare fires off at weird angles instead of straight up
- Yeah it does that, it depends on the angle of the terrain the grenade is touching when it explodes. pretty rare to have them be more than a few degrees tilted though.
- on high FOV settings, the edges of the illumination light will despawn in big blocky sections until you get closer to it.
- I cannot fix this, this is an issue with the graphical/lighting engine of the game. sorry.
Compatibility
- Incompatible with mods that replace Grenade explosion particles.
