About this mod

Every mech comes equipped with lights that can be bound to torso or legs and toggled between low beams, High beams, and cszolee's Flood light. In addition to the added lights, mechs also come with flares that light up the sky for a duration before exhausting its fuel source and then plummeting to the ground as a fireball.

Let there be light

In addition to the added lights, mechs also come with flares that light up the sky for a duration before exhausting its fuel source and then plummeting to the ground as a fireball.
