Balancing of light source durations #363

Closed brightrim closed 1 year ago

brightrim commented 1 year ago

Light source durations need rebalancing. Some seem to last too long (reported over 18 hours) while others relatively short (50 min reported). The specific details for each source needs to be looked into. Potentially related to the rot time of an item being longer if dropped by a player?

Candle sticks relation to glyph forging needs to be looked into in case it is in any way affected by this.

Standing oil lamp relation to Runewick's repeatable lamp lighting quest should also be looked at.

Durations could either be set to have the same value for all, or be balanced around the effort required (lighting a torch versus needing a candle stick, lantern or lamp for other light sources), the price (torch, candle(s), lamp oil(minus bottle price) or similar. Will need to be looked into to see what that would look like in practice.

Cleaned up the lights script and set the default timer to 1 hour for now. That's up from the minimum of 30 min and down from the maximum of 12.7 hours that occurred in the varying timers we had.
