... who else will be looking through ore dry caves to retrieve all their torches? I know I am. If theyre going to be temp, I might as well gather them up and use them for something thats a current project.
I'm more likely to stick in the current mining system I have now and just expand upon it. All the torches in it will instantly become lanterns, and once I've mined out all the exposed materials, I can strip mine the rest of it.
In fact, I'd do it just to annoy the torch spammer nay-sayers who get annoyed for no good reason already. :oP
But even starting from scratch on a new world, I'd simply gather up resources to use lanterns effectively (i.e. what is affectionately called "spamming" around here) in place of torches. I'd probably get to use less, since I assume lanterns would provide more light, so it'd even out overall in manufacturing and whatnot.
My playstyle wouldn't change at all though. I'd just have to stay at home a bit longer to have proper exploration tools (lanterns). And all the change would prove to be for nothing... wee!
