Slow Consumption

Tired of constantly having to change the empty battery in your flashlight? Or finding a new soap or lighter to replace the empty one? Or even changing colored light bulbs too often?

Because we've all done this too many times. This mod does all of these at once:

🔹 Reduces flashlight battery consumption by 2 🔹 Reduces soap consumption by 2 🔹 Reduces lighter/matches consumption by 2 🔹 Increases colored light bulb condition by 10

[h2]🆕 Want to adjust even more items? Try this mod : Custom Consumption - Adjusts more than 100 items in sandbox options[/h2]

◽ Supported Version: 41.73+

◽ Compatible with Singleplayer and Multiplayer

◽ Works on existing saves (*)

(*) only partially consumed colored bulbs will not be updated.

  • Reduction of torch [yellow flashlight] battery consumption from 0.0009 to 0.00045
  • Reduction of handtorch [black flashlight] battery consumption from 0.0004 to 0.0002
  • Reduction of soap consumption from 0.05 to 0.025
