Summary

A blood torch outputs light in a 10 tile radius, with the nearest 7.884 tiles being above 50% light level and considered lit. It heats the room to a maximum temperature of 23 °C (73.4 °F) at a rate of 3.5 heat per second.[Exact mechanic unclear]

The blood torch consumes Wood 1.5 wood per day as long as it is lit. If lit while unroofed under the rain, it consumes an additional Wood 0.0006 wood per 1 tick (0.02 secs), or a total of Wood 38 wood per day. It can hold up to Wood 20 wood at a time, for a maximum run time of 13.33 days, or 12.8 hours if in constant rain. It is constructed with a full fuel capacity. Fuel is delivered to the torch by a haulers as long as refueling is enabled.

It cannot be "turned off" or paused, only deconstructed, in which case no wood is recovered, regardless of any "fuel" remaining.

It functions as a meditation focus for psycasters with the Flame focus.Content added by the Royalty DLC
