📋 About This Mod
Summary
This mod allows you to make your carryable light sources from any mod require fuel to function.
It keeps track of the fuel usage, i.e. turning it off won't result in a reset on the duration.
Upon depletion, the fuel will be automatically added to your light source to refuel it, if you have the necessary fuel item in your inventory. Otherwise, your light will be unequipped.
What you need to do
Set the light sources, their respective fuel, and durations via ini file. How to do that?
You need to put the EditorIDs and/or FormIDs of the items you want to use as light sources and fuels in the ini file. That's it!
-
[]To be able to use EditorIDs, you have to have po3's Tweaks installed. Otherwise, you need to use FormIDs.
[
]You can still use EditorIDs together with FormIDs, if you have po3's Tweaks.[]The durations are given in in-game hours. If you do not provide a duration for a source, it will be set to 8 in-game hours.
[]Yes, you can assign different fuel items to different light sources.
[](0. 4a) You can assign different fuel items to the same light sources.
[]Quick Light is supported. You need po3's Tweaks for this feature.
(In this context, a key is what is written on the left-hand side of each equality, i.e. source1 in source1 = Candlelantern01)
Use the same key for the fuel and duration of the same source to match everything with each other. See Examples section below.
How to find Form/Editor IDs
You can use zEdit, xEdit, or the console command help.
An example in xEdit is shown in the Images section.
Examples - An example ini configuration for Simple Wearable Lanterns can be found in the Images section.
- Another example ini file can be found under the miscellaneous downloads section. It includes
Simple Wearable Lanterns
Everlight - Torches of Skyrim SE
Usable Lantern SE Tweaked
Kagrenac's Wisps
Eld Beri - Yet Another Wearable Lantern Mod (With ENB Light)
