Handheld Torches

A lit torch, candle or lantern needs a free hand. You get keys to light, drop or throw one (a thrown torch can set an enemy on fire). You see the light in your hand in first person, and a dropped torch keeps burning, lights the room and can be picked up again.

Handheld Torches is an entry in the Built-in mods database, listed under On.

Several of these change core rules, so the guide pages describe the game with them on. 'Fixed by the room' means online everyone plays with the mod at its shipped settings, whatever they choose offline.
