Light flare for dark maps

[Dennis Laursen]

Sometimes I miss a kind of "light flare" (please correct me, if I use a wrong term), especially on dark maps. I imagine that this light flare should work that it can be buy in the shop (of course), and a player can carry 1-2. The player can throw this light flare, and the flare will light up the area for a while.
This will be very nice on dark maps, such a Farm, Surburbia and so on. But on the other hand, I think that the darkness is a significant part of KF.

What do you think? Will a light flare be a good addition to the game, or it is better without?


I am sorry for my bad English, but I hope you can understand me anyway.

If anything we should have more areas like the pitch black office tunnel on Westlondon.

You may be looking for one of these:

Spoiler!

The skin isn't the most original, but it gets the job done.

To be honest we need the glowsticks out of WTFMod! I have used these on my server and they're funny to use. You can either put them on the floor OR around your neck (alt-fire).

@EpharGy:
Yes, but you only have flashlight on the standard pistol and the shotgun. And it is only useable for one self.

@CandleJack:
Hmm, yes, something like that - a glowstick - if it can be thrown. (I ignore the big, red wall) But, not an offence, I think it is a little bit ugly...

Then you'd make them useless, a medic with a pistol on a lights out map is invaluable

Well on the server which i took that screenshot there's also glowsticks, but i haven't got a screenshot of those; only the flaregun.

@EpharGy:
OK, I don't know that the flashlight could be useable for others.

@CandleJack:
OK
