[Bug] 0% Bottle Lantern's give off light

[Clwnbaby]

When bottle lantern's get down to 0% if you place them on the ground they give off light permanently.  This is really easy to replicate.

 

Just gonna lump this in here with this though but there seems to be a few 0% tools bug.  The tools bug seem difficult to replicate but one I encountered was with the Machete and when it happens you are unable to pick up items with space bar but clicking them works fine.

I'd like to add to this thread since it seems to be the same bottle lantern bug and feel it is a bug that definitely needs to be dealt with but has yet to be fixed.

 

Currently there is a bug where if you add light to your bottle lantern, you can let it die out once (0%), leave it on the floor, leave the game and return to find that your bottle is automatically filled up again. Once this happens, the bottle's light source NEVER dies out.

 

Using this bug some people have been able to survive without once making a fire etc after acquiring and using the item in question. I heard about it and tested it out myself today and it indeed looks like an easy to "exploit" bug that should be fixed at some point. It's nice that I can put bottles all around my camp and have the bug light the place up if I ever need it, which is how many are using it but it looks like a bug and doesn't seem intentional.

It's not a bug, it's a feature 

Also it's very convenient when you start to have a big camp and don't have the renewable ressources to refill all your lamps all the time.

 

I think that it's not really that big of an issue since it's when you have it equiped that it matters more that is shuts down at 0% fuel. In the camp even if you don't "need" to put on a fire, you still do to cook or to see enoughs o at the end you still need a fireplae.

Also with fireflies you can also survive the night without starting a fire, so if you really want, there is always a way.

Put a bottle on the ground and it will eventually goes out to 0%, and provide no light.

Just pick it up, and put it down again, then it will provide infinite light.

I'm pretty sure it is a bug.
