Medieval Sun Lamp

Description
**Now with Darklight Plant Brazier and a patch for the Infinite Refuelables mod by okradonkey.**

I needed a Medieval option for indoor growing, so I created this mod.

This adds a floor brazier that acts as a primitive sun lamp for medieval playthroughs. It can be made from Metal or Stone. It requires refilling (via wood) every 4 days or so**, produces a small amount of heat, and can be used as a meditation spot (because I wanted to meditate in an indoor garden).

Per request, I've also added a Darklight Plant Brazier. This has a smaller light radius (grow zone radius is not impacted) and may be fueled with wood or raw fungus.

Neither require research.

Finally, for those who do not enjoy refueling and use the Infinite Refuelables mod by okradonkey, I've included a patch which will require that mod (load this mod after okradonkey's).

Should be safe to add or remove from a game.

Please let me know if you run into any trouble. I've done some minimal testing and verified the light is working and that the meditation spot is linked.

@ Nikoleeeeeva: No worries. I'm definitely not offended. Thank you for your interest in this mod and your kind words and work!

@Valkaria Haha, don't worry, don't feel pressured or obligated to use it! Like I said, I really liked your mod, and seeing as I had some free time, I wanted to add a texture more in keeping with the game's aesthetic. I was afraid you'd think I was somehow disregarding your work. I'm glad you liked it.

@Nikoleeeeeva: WOW. I am so honored by this post and that you took such time to make a graphic for it! That is just....wow! Thank you! I probably will not add it to my main mod, but I think this would make a cool patch. I might try to work on that soon. I don't really play RimWorld much these days, but I can't just ignore such a gift. Thank you!

Hi! I really loved this mod. I was looking for something like this for a medieval run.
Although I wasn't entirely convinced by the brazier's texture, I tried making some new ones. If you want, and are planning to make a future update, feel free to use it. You don't have to give credit or anything.

I hope this doesn't come across as disrespectful or anything like that. English is not my native language.

Here's the textures: https://imgur.com/a/dlplantbrazier-7Zdacup

Updated for 1.5 compatibility with minimal testing. If you run into issues, please let me know. Thank you!

You can edit the XML to change the values in your own copy.

So it gives 100% light? is there an option to customize it? plants need only 51% at their minimum

@GuyDing22: I have never played with multiplayer. I don't know what this will do there, but the entire thing is XML based so it should run ok. If you have any other simplistic lighting mods, I'd expect a similar behavior. Hope that helps and thank you for using the mod. I hope your gf has fun, too!

Recently got into multiplayer with my gf. Anyone know of/test if this works in multiplayer? It's a staple of single player but I don't want to cause a bunch of desyncs and get her frustrated with the game
