The Hurricane Lantern (Lit) is a Hurricane Lantern with its flame burning. It is the working state of the fuel lantern, and it throws a steady light all around itself.
It is a light for the long nights after the power fails. It burns Gasoline, so it keeps going when batteries run short. Its cost is the weight of a metal lantern and the fuel it uses while it stays lit.
This state comes only from lighting an unlit lantern with a fire starter. The plain lantern turns up in the Wild West themed buildings and in barns, and a smith can forge one.
Using
The flame lights a circle around the lantern that reaches about fifteen tiles. That suits a room, a camp or a workbench. A flashlight throws a cone ahead and is the better choice for searching a dark building.
Extinguish Hurricane Lantern puts the flame out. The lantern then goes back to its unlit form, the Hurricane Lantern, with the fuel that is left. Light Hurricane Lantern brings it back with any fire starter, such as a lighter or matches.
The same flame works on every metal finish. A Copper, Gold or Silver lantern gives the same light as the steel one.
Upkeep
A full lantern gives about a hundred and forty uses of fuel. Refilling happens on the unlit lantern, so the flame has to go out first. Refill Hurricane Lantern then adds a little Gasoline from any container.

The lit lantern never spawns in loot. It comes from lighting a Hurricane Lantern. The unlit lantern is common in the bedrooms, living rooms and kitchens of the Wild West themed buildings. Barns hold one now and then. Pawn shops, closets, sheds and attics give small chances.
Notes
- Putting the flame out between uses stretches the fuel.
- A fuel can of Gasoline doubles as lamp oil.
- Research Craft on the lantern teaches Forge Lantern and Make Lantern Glass.
- The lantern lights a whole room around it rather than one direction.
