How do I refill bateries to the flashlight on modern bow
And how do I turn off/on the flashlight? If I press "L", then my character turns on/off the second flash light in left hand, not the one I want. Didn´t find anything in controls settings that could help me either

Unfortunately, the two are linked. As you use your bow, the battery of your left hand flashlight will deplete too. Aaaand you can't turn off the flashlight on the bow.
Hopefully they'll fix that in two weeks.

Also, if I kill someone with modern arrow and retrieve the arrow, it turns into basic one, not modern anymore. That´s great as well

"As of v0.71, a flashlight can be attached to specific weapons to provide light while using those weapons. It can be removed by placing the weapon on the crafting mat and pressing C over the weapon. The batteries charge is still the same and will require batteries to recharge it. If a player finds a spare flashlight, they can add their original one to a weapon, then pick up the new flashlight"

Sounds like a pain in the ace. Should just be able to put the upgraded bow on the mat with a battery.

I wouldn't say it's better. In regards of longevity the lighter is much better. For close range light, the lighter is good. But the flashlight offers light at a distance across a room in a cave or up 15 feet on the surface.

I remember this thread very well. Bcs right after I realised it's broken I quit the game and never really returned back to it.
