How Does it Work?
If you have a torch in your inventory tapping this hotkey will equip a torch (unless certain conditions are met). If you tap again the torch will be unequipped back to your inventory. If you have a torch equipped you can double-tap the hotkey to drop the torch in front of you. The mod will alert you if any of the actions above fail to proceed.
As of Version 2.01, part of Primal Fear by DServant is incorporated into this mod. It's modified to fit this mod's script but it almost has the same functionality. With this feature enabled once you equip a torch certain beasts will be afraid of you. They will run away but keep stalking you from distance until your torch runs out. You can check if the option is enabled under active effects or you can disable it through customization.
How to Customize?
Hold the hotkey till you see the notification asking you to choose the desired key. Click the preferred hotkey and it will be saved as the new hotkey. There are some questions following this notification to change other aspects of this mod. Try it yourself in game and tell me if you have any suggestions.
Installation:
Install with a mod manager or extract the contents of "00 Core" folder into your Skyrim's Data folder.
This mod works right out of the box once installed and the customization is not required for it to function.
Incompatibility:
The only conflict this mod might have are with the mods doing exactly the same thing such as Simple DLT, SM Drop Torch, Torch Hotkey... or mods handling equipping function such as Equipping Overhaul. If you have found other conflicting mods please report back here as well. The vanilla record conflicts are negligible (don't affect the main functionality) and are not worth making patches.
FAQ:
What is the difference with Simple Drop Lit Torch?
This is pretty much the same mod without MCM. As of version 1.01 of this mod the script tracks last equipped weapon or spell and equip it back when torch is unequipped. It also recognizes when mining, smelting, forging, sitting or other animations are done playing to re-equip the torch. Global Variables are introduced to allow customization of the mod from the plugin. Done a very minor optimization to reduce the script load. Added failure messages to alert player when it is not possible to drop or equip a torch. Restricted torch handling when player is swimming. Added torch ignition when dropped on oil puddles. There are more changes but not significant enough to name here. Internationalized the mod using SKSE.
