Companion Torch
Hey guys,

i just got my companion some torch and waited for night time to see if they do anything, I'm pressing my torch button (default T) but the companion torch lights for a split second before turning itself down.

Am I missing something ?

Edit: if I am on foot and press my flashlight button, both me and the companion cast a light. However, if I ride the companion, there are no more flashlight.

Outside of a glitch of some sort, I would suggest two things:

Under game's general options, toggle Auto Torch to Disabled.
Under Controls/On Foot, change the hotkey to something else. Might have to switch a few hotkeys to accommodate.

I did those things because the game constantly turning the light off when I didn't want it off drove me insane, and IIRC I think something about the Terrain editing MT function interfered (couldn't turn light on/off while using that). Maybe some pet hotkeys interfere/conflict
