Rock Light?

[TroubledCoder]

Hi, I've been around the forums for quite some time but only just now made an account because of something I found. I was digging around the game's files to update the quotes on the wiki, and saw something in Wilson's quotes that I've never seen before?

 

ROCK_LIGHT ={GENERIC = "A crusted over lava pit.",OUT = "Looks fragile.",LOW = "The lava's crusting over.",NORMAL = "Nice and comfy.",

Does anyone know what this is? Could it be an upcoming feature?

 

I found it in the speech_wilson.lua file so you can go see for yourself that this is in there.

This was a planned addition to caves which got scrapped. It later got repurposed as the nightmare lights found in the ruins. In its original form, it looked like a nightmare light and you could hammer it to create a light/heat source.  It would eventually crust over and you'd have to hammer it again to reopen it.

 

ETA: Here's the wiki page for it: http://dont-starve-game.wikia.com/wiki/Lava_Pit

Ah, thank you! 

 

Strange they would leave the quotes in still though. But then again they also left in the research points quotes lol.
