Make flares permanent again please.  Campfires last forever so why not flares?  IIRC a dev said that items left on the ground don't affect performance and it's not like having a flare on the ground is abusable, it just gives us a way to personalize our tents/bases that adds a bit of extra fun.

Please?

Definitelly yes. And Flares should be craftable imho. Say 2x Gunpowder + 2x Fibres ?

[Michaelh139]

Yes.

Though there was an instance pre-wipe with a super flare that DID affect performance for everyone, lowering their FPS.

prewipe ravenous rat abused flares by setting dropping tons of them on one hex in ncr. all of ncr was lagging out. im pretty sure something like that effects performance.

At least make them craftable.

Agree.

If you mean during pre-wipe madness I think that was a special flare.

the one im talking about as i mentioned was a "SUPER FLARE" Which had purple lighting and went on as far as you could see the item all over the entire map.

Well I'm only talking about regular ordinary green & orange flares. They used to be a cool little item that people could use to personalize their tent/base but now they disappear after 2-3 rl hours so they're basically worthless

Well idea of flares burning eternally might not seem realistic but i do agree it's the only way for those to be usable...

[GroeneAppel]

Might not be realistic but atleast it's fun. I agree that they should be added back. Meanwhile you can use rum which glows in the dark aswell.

If they'd be more widely available, then make them atleast useful (for the faraway day when Day/Night Cylce affects chance to hit and FoV). Right now, they are useless and their only purpose is to troll or make the maps look very very ugly.
