    Anyone know how to find/make one? Coords or anything? I think I threw it away by mistake but this is killing me D:

    You can find them in chests, I saw one in a house a bit away from my base on the starting planet.
    Outside of finding one though no idea.

    Just look around for a village or town of some sort on any planet. I usually find one in the chests/crates there

    It probably started him on a threat level one planet, so that should narrow the choices.

    you won't find the same things in chests. that's completely random. there will be a chest THERE... it just won't have a flashlight in it most likely.

    They will be the same, everything in a planet is random, but Starbound uses coordinates as seeds for the random. Its the same way that Minecraft uses seeds. If two people use the same coordinates, the planets, biomes, chests, and everything in them will be the same for all players.

    it's already been posted that the items in chests are random. period. so you won't get the same loot in a chest, but the location of said chest will still be there, the same as finding a gun selling NPC will always be there. just like that castle on that one world will always be there. the LAYOUT of the world will be the same, BUT the loot in the chests/crates/wardrobes/what have you will be different the majority of the time.

    people have already complained about this in other threads, so... what you said isn't completely accurate.

    Wrong. How did I not get the same tech ugrade other people found in a specific chest?

    Yep, pretty sure this is correct -- chests are completely random in our experience.

    To the OP, find any Glitch village (Avian too, but Glitch are the best) and search every container in town. There's a REALLY high chance of finding another flashlight in one. This is definitely one of those items that should be craftable. If I can craft a robotic crafting station, I should be able to make a simple flashlight :)

    Wish I could help you out there. :( I can't stop FINDING flashlights!

    ... Or hold up, you know stuff on your character (but not ships + planets) carries over from Multiplayer to single player, yeah?

    I want to point out that this thread was made December 5. The OP has probably found a flashlight or made a new character.

    flashlights are ALWAYS findable in abandoned mines
    if your lucky to find one,
    if your luckyer it can also be colored
