Beltborne Lanterns — free hands, bright path
Press B while holding a lantern — it snaps onto your belt. Walk, jump, fight — the lantern sways with physics and casts light near you. Need it back in your hands? Press B again. 💡
🧩 Why it’s awesome
- One key, zero hassle. Stop digging in your inventory: B instantly attaches or detaches the lantern.
- Living light. Physics makes the glow feel real — a gentle sway as you move and turn.
- Immersion without compromise. Hands free, light by your side — explore, build, survive.
⚙️ How to use
- Hold a lantern.
- Press B — it attaches to your belt.
- Move around — it sways with you and casts light near you.
- Press B again — it detaches.
Dynamic lighting note: the in‑world light effect requires a dynamic lighting mod — see FAQ.
