Lantern

The Lantern in Rust is a stationary lighting source essential for illuminating dark spaces and providing visibility during the night or in low-light conditions in-game. Designed for placement on various surfaces, the lantern requires low grade fuel to operate. Once fueled, it emits a steady glow that enhances the player's visibility and overall safety within the game.

With a burn rate of 1 low grade fuel every 10 minutes, the Lantern is a fuel-efficient option for players looking to maintain long-term lighting solutions without constant resource management. It can be strategically placed on ground deployables, making it versatile for both indoor and outdoor use, from lighting up a base or providing guidance along pathways.

Simple to use, players must first obtain the Lantern item, then position it in the desired location. After placement, access the Lantern's inventory to deposit the required fuel. Once activated, the Lantern will continuously burn until the fuel is depleted, so players should monitor fuel levels to ensure continuous light.

Tips: Always keep extra low grade fuel on hand to refill your Lanterns. Place them at key points around your base for maximum efficiency. Players can also create a visually appealing atmosphere by clustering Lanterns, which not only serves a practical purpose but also enhances a base's aesthetic appeal.
