amazing mod, but somehow the light goes through the walls, making it very annoying when we're exploring different places but still near enough for the light to reach :(

if bravens mod 'common sense' disables the flashlight belt attach function when it detects shining together, what to use to attach to belt? i understand authentic Z Tier 3 backpack will work.

sooo putting the flashlights on slots like noir attchments will not work ? or belt, if it does work i would use it, its pretty cool ^^

We installed it yesterday on our MP Server and it works just fine. Finally I can guide my friend with light lol

This will probably sound crazy, but this mod doesn't seem to like to being added mid-game to an MP server. Every time I've tried to add it to the bottom of our load order and go to host, it acts as if my character is dead, asks me to respawn, and then it'll fail to load. Far as I know, that has something to do with corrupt character data, perhaps something to do with the trait this mod adds?

i love how modders add awesome things every day at this point, that should have been in the game since day 1 by default, meanwhile..the devs are playing around with glowy effects and want to add pottery.
$hit no one ever asked for.

Consider that I had lost hope because I saw that torches are already shared in multiplayer, and they only don't work when you activate them from the HOTBAR. I investigated and discovered that when you trigger "Turn On," which starts the item's setActivated, it sends a network event packet that checks if the item is equipped in the primary or secondary hand (in fact, in the hotbar it isn't, so it won't trigger the sharing of the light). I had lost hope; you're awesome! Thanks!

can't believe it! it was my first idea for a mod hahaha thanks man! love you

@Dubsora Bravens Common sense update on May 10th states this. Hotfix: Disabled attachment of Flashlights when the User has the mods Shine Together or Noir's Attachments activated. So if you are using Bravens you wont be able to use this with it, this goes for everyone using that mod in particular. No clue on other mods that let you attach flashlights.

I'm also having the same issue. Braven's Common Sense mod isn't working as intended for me and I can't figure out why. I've been messing around with mod load order for hours and still can't figure out the solution

i cant attach my flashlight... how to attach it?

Does this work with candles?

@Black Dynamite It might not. This mod only checks for player's items.

can this work for superb survivors?

If you want to be known for fixing long running game bugs.. how about radios only working when players have been within ~30 tiles of each other at least once before radios will work as advertised. Its been a known bug for years and nobody has tried to fix it as far as i can tell. Breaks any mods that add "long distance" radio or servers that rely heavy on voip/radios

thank you Pill0w, this is a mod i'd been dreaming of for a long time. recently started up an eternal night server too, so this is amazing timing haha. thanks so much

@Joe78man It works with flashlight (cone light source) as far as I tested. Hence I have a different version for the glowstick which uses point light source

This is just for attached lights? or all lights carried sources like simple torches?

The Devil: "My son will wait for the TIS patch to fix the issue."
Our Lord and Savior: "My son will code it themselves."

can this mod work with the full authentic Z and without authentic Z LITE?

@shoxgun ett he literally put in the compatibility section that it doesn't work with brita's yet

does this work with brita weapon pack gun flashlights? i assume this works for any light emitting item but i can't test it yet

@donPabloM but authenticZ backpacks upgrade system works with this mod, you attach it to a Tier 3 backpack and my friends see it too

It looks like Braven on purpouse disabled flashlight attaching to belt if you are using this mod

The quotation marks in the thumbnail make it sound really suspicious to me lol. Seems like a good mod though, if you aren't using something like noir's attachments

Hey, I'm also having the attatch to toolbelt issue, i'm running the mod last on the load order, but it still won't let me put it on.
what I can say after testing, is that for some reason, your mod makes the Hand torch attachable ONLY to the authenticZ backpacks slots, but if I delete it from the dedicated server, it doesn't go back to normal, but testing in a SOLO game, with your mod and autheticZ both on, the torch can be attached to the backpack, but obviously I can't know if your mod works.
after more testing, reseting the dedicated server without autheticZ makes the hand torch non attachable.
in further testing, Just deleted the character, world and reseted the whole dedicated server, with ONLY your mod and common sense, and in fact, the hand torch isn't attachable anymore, with either of them going first or last on the load order
it's all too confusing to me, could you help me and my friends? we love your mod way too much to drop it

Do you think this mod could ever be compatible with superb survivors?

@WanderBoi same here

@WanderBoi i am fairly certain that is a feature from the "Common Sense" mod by bitbraven. atleast, i'm pretty sure that is where it comes from in my game.

Can someone tell me please if i glitched through the matrix? i remember adding the flashlight to the belt but i ended up doing a full game reinstall just to not have "attach to belt" am i missing something?

@jokeboke I'm not sure, I can even do that. The latest update just updated two lines of code. I don't think it broke anything.

I see the light from my friend's flashlight through the walls(((

Really good mod!

If we ever meet IRL I'll suck you off thank you

You're a hero of zomboid

Thanks

AMBATAKAM

pretty good

good

okay thanks ! great job btw

@Master Fuch You would need another mod out there to attach flashlights.

Does the mod allows to attach flashlight to backpack by itself ? or should i use another mod that allows to do that ?

amazing man!

@Pill0w Damn, surely there is some multiplayer problem with the light in vanilla. How about car headlights? When you leave the car, you can't see the light from your headlights. It sucks because sometimes you want to do stuff and use your headlights as a light source. Can the same technique be applied to those?

@LORDEXODIA01 Night vision error should be fixed now

@toomanynights I don't think there's anything wrong with the flashlight equipped in hands. That's the way they do it in vanilla and it's working fine.

lourd

nightvision goggles give error when swinging weapons with this mod on

Thanks for the mod and for the laughs :D
Does it fix equipped flashlights though? Not attached to belt, just equipped in a hand.

Hey thanks for telling us that its not working for brita´s yet still gave you an upvote and I hope upating it to work will be smooth for ya
