Lighter
A lighter is a drainable item with various uses.
Usage
A lighter can be used to light candles, Molotov cocktails, cigarettes, campfires, or antique ovens, burn corpses, or as a light source. In order to use a Molotov, a lighter must be equipped in the secondary slot of the inventory. Corpses can be burnt if a lighter is in the primary slot and a gas can is in the secondary slot.
Light source
The light provided by a lighter is inferior to that of a flashlight, but will provide a ring of light around the player. If a flashlight isn't in the player's inventory, pressing the 'F' key (default) will equip a lighter and turn it on. Once equipped, pressing F will turn it on or off.
