quality of life A small tweak to Portable Crockpot

[Articestone]

Have you ever placed down Warly's crockpot and tried to pack it up while holding a torch before burning it to ashes? 

As such i would like to suggest that due to Warly's familiarity to his crockpot, he is able to pack it up with one hand while the other hand is holding a torch. However, he can choose to burn it once it is placed as an item not as a structure. 

What do you think about it?

I like this suggestion because ideally I'd like to cook at night and then move on, but the fact it can't be dismantled while holding a torch means it pretty much locks you down to one place.

I've felt the pain of burning it to ashes because of the torch

I read the title and immediately knew what the suggestion was going to be before reading the body. I'd love to be able to continue moving on without doing something silly like placing a twig and setting it on fire.

Yes! As someone who likes to make quick meals during midnight, both in real life and in Don't Starve, this is a change that I feel is necessary.

I think you can do it by fast switching the torch at night

I do the same with torch when going into a tent at night. Just press another key AS you press the right click. If you misclick just press a movement key to cancel the burning animation.

I know this is not an optimal way but you can light it up with the torch and hammer it right after.

I would like this change, I did this once but thankfully watering cans are amazing for dealing with fires

Wait, I thought if you lit the portable crock pot on fire, then it would just disassemble itself.

 

Am I being Crazy here?

for now, burn a twig

I think that's the way it should be. Just in case you want to burn your own crockpot for whatever strategic value. 

You just have to be a little bit more aware of your actions. Also you can hammer burning crockpot to extinguish it.
