Before there were flashlights, there were torches and lanterns. Kinda hard to get your torch and pitchfork on without torches. Lanterns can use chemfuel to provide light, since this mod already has resupply code. Plus, would be cool to treat torches as basically low-tech molotov cocktails/incendiary "grenades." Plus, gives more of a reason to delineate flashlight "research," for tribal start (which I guess is just rolled into microelectronics or just regular electronics).

Incidentally, I have discovered that it's actually kinda difficult to intentionally start a fire in Rimworld unless you at a minimum have molotov cocktails. So can't even set back blazes to mitigate forest fires...
