Since there's gonna be separation of "enviromental protections" (Radiation, Cold and Heat protection) and Air Supply, while certain backpacks can then provide one or two of the other enviromental protections. Why not make high lvl backpacks instead give directable light source (function would be similar to flashlights), while "light pole" types (example: xenon light packs) would offer less functionality in comparison. This could be viewed as upgrade over flashlights and limited acquisition possibilities of weapons with attached flashlights.
The light augments make the flashlight obsolete. Once you get a Light 3 augment, a flashlight is literally useless since the augment light is stronger and extends further than the beam of the flashlight.
Blegh, what I understood out of Starbounder, it's literally Xenon pack upgrade... Damn I'd love to have shoulder lamp...
