Some help with controller controls?
I'm trying to relearn this game and use a controller. Can someone please explain how to install a light bulb in a lantern using a controller?

You do this the same way you would move items around your inventory. I just tested it, it's R2/Right trigger. This will zoom into your inventory and allow you to move items around with the joystick, but not the d-pad for some reason. Use this mode to hover the bulbs over the lantern, just like I said. It will give you button prompts for everything.

Oh and you can also refuel a lantern if you place it on the ground and use the left d-pad button while having bulbs selected. You should probably understand how that previous method works, though. It's pretty important.

If it's the same as it is on the PS versions, you select the bulb in your inventory and hover it over the lantern/mining helmet and press whatever button it tells you to press to add fuel.

That should be the same way you feed critters in your inventory and repair clothing with sewing kits.

Do I need to put the lantern on the ground first? I don't know to "hover" an item in my inventory over another item in my inventory. I can only see the context menu when the item is selected, and moving it somewhere else in inventory doesn't seem to be an option on that menu.
