Miners Helmet

[Ivy the imp]

My Miner's Helmet light will not come on. Do you need to be at a certain level before it works? Or maybe read a manual? Flashlights work, headlights work on minibike, but the helmet light won't come on. Any suggestions?

TIA

If you have several items that could turn on, and press the light turn on/activate button, only one will turn on. Hold down the activate key and if there are more than one, you'll be able to select the device you want to use. For instance, you have a weapon flashlight mod, night vision, and miners helmet. when you press the activate key, only the gun light will turn on, but not the others. So hold down the key and click on the item you want to use.

If you have night vision you don't really need a weapon light. The miners helmet is better than night vision for mining so you can see the unique color patterns of various ores.

Thanks for the info. But it still will not work even if it is the only item with a 'light' option. I have three different helmets, and none of them work.

If you craft mining helmet by yourself you won't have light on it because head on light now is seperate mod you can attach to any helmet ,so basically you need to buy / find / extract mod itself or buy / find mining helmet .

Thanks!! I did not realize they had changed it up. That worked.

You're welcome ,had similar confusion by myself too.

You don't need miners helmet for light anymore, you can attach helmet light mod to every helmet in game (padded, leather, military, scrap, iron, steel and swat). Miners helmet is kinda useless in this alpha, I hope they add some unique bonus for wearing it in future (block damage, bonus to amount of ore harvested, protection against collapsing mines...)

Didn't know they changed the miners helmet. It should have stayed as it was, with a light already built in. Learned something new so thanks for that

When you loot one, it comes pre equipped with the mod. Without a light is only when it's player made now.

They really should just change the description to "Hard Hat" or "Construction Hat" or any of the other monikers for the standard plastic safety helmet. A hard hat with a light attached is a miners helmet. A miners helmet with no light is just a hard hat. It's pretty simple logic, right?

That’s a good idea.

Oh got ya. That makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.
