Ignite flare while holding it.

[bahhh 83]

I'd like a change how flare works right now.

Currently u just throw the flare and it automatically ignites.

How bout when we left-click, flare ignites and you are still holding it.(of course the flare animation should change) and when u left click again, that's when the throwing action starts.

This kinda adds some realism and coolism? lol

I mean like in the movies. When they are in a cave or somethin

They ignite in their hands, they don't throw it :)

What's your opinion?

This would be very useful too, not just for the cool effect. My first log in was at night and I quickly spent 10 flares following a road. Of course, I didn't get anywhere but if I could run with a lit flare, then I could cover more ground.

I'm not sure about realism though. Would the flare be a hazard being lit in your hands?

you can carry flares now, just walk up to it and use the action menu and select pick up flare... you are now holding a lit flare. However you are also basically holding a huge sign that says "COME KILL ME!!!" to every zombie and player within 1 km...

Suggestion's alright, but I don't really see much use in it.

Flares are pretty much designed to not be a fire hazard since you're supposed to hold them like a torch.

You can walk up to a flare on the ground and pick it up as of now.

To make it easier for the engine, throwing should remain the same and 'light flare' should be put into inventory action menu.
