Lanterns Are Lighters is a Vintage Story mod by Windows98. Lanterns Are Lighters lets your lantern ignite fires, so it can replace a separate torch during everyday survival tasks.
Why this mod is worth installing
This QoL mod suits players who want one practical light source for both illumination and fire-starting. It is especially useful when exploring or managing a compact survival inventory.
What Lanterns Are Lighters adds
The mod changes the role of the standard lantern by giving it the ability to start fires. Your lantern is no longer limited to lighting dark areas while you carry a separate tool for ignition.
This is a focused quality-of-life change rather than a new progression system. It keeps the familiar lantern while making survival routines more convenient, particularly when moving between camps, caves, and work areas.
