The wall torch lamp is wall-mounted piece of furniture that burns wood to light an area, while also generating a small amount of heat. It is a wall-mounted equivalent to the torch lamp, providing less light in return for not taking up a tile.

Acquisition[edit]

Wall torch lamps can be constructed, each requiring Wood 15 Wood and 100 ticks (1.67 secs) of work modified by the construction speed of the builder.

Once constructed, they cannot be re-installed, they can only be deconstructed.

Summary[edit]

The white area (4-5 tiles out) is 50% illumination, required for best surgery success chance; the yellow (5th or 6th tile) represents 30% or better, adequate for all general labor, avoiding mood penalties, and for growing decorative plants indoors in plant pots.

A wall torch lamp outputs light in a 9-tile radius, with the nearest 6.378 tiles being above 50% light level and considered lit. It heats the room to a maximum temperature of 23 °C (73.4 °F) at a rate of 3.5 heat per second.[Exact mechanic unclear]

The wall torch lamp consumes Wood 2 wood per day as long as it is lit. It can hold up to Wood 20 wood at a time, for a maximum run time of 10 days. It is constructed with a full fuel capacity. Fuel is delivered to the torch lamp by a haulers as long as refueling is enabled. It cannot be "turned off" or paused, only deconstructed, in which case no wood is recovered, regardless of any "fuel" remaining.

If under the rain and unroofed, it consumes an additional Wood 0.0006 wood per 1 tick (0.02 secs), or 38 wood per day. It therefore lasts for 12.63 hours if in constant rain.

Analysis[edit]

? Doesn't take a tile, produces less light, consumes the same wood/time.

Styles[edit]

Ideoligions allow the selection of styles which then change the texture of the certain items and buildings when constructed by the colony. These style variants can be crafted if the colony has the selected style, or can be looted from raiders from factions with the requisite style.
