Wall-mounted Oil Lantern

    I'd like a crafting recipe or printing recipe for the wall-mounted "Oil Lantern" light found in Avian Villages and elsewhere. I like them rather a lot, but so far I'm limited to either purchasing them from merchants (assuming I can find the proper merchant) or finding them in settlements/dungeons and "liberating" them from their owners. They don't scan in the 3D Printer, and I haven't found any way to craft them using other means.

    They're pretty abundant on Lush/Garden worlds though. Just steal all the crates. Or plop a flag down by a related merchant when you find one.

    I also really like them. But I also have not decided how I feel about whether some things should remain scarce or not for gameplay reasons. It is a lower tier item though...

    if you mean the little thing in mines and such, there's a recipe for it already on your crafting table past iron and such, but at 10 iron per lantern it's WAY too expensive to make. i think it's a typoed item, since that's way more metal than a bed or table....

    http://starbounder.org/Oil_Lantern not the Iron Lantern which you're thinking of.

    My bad, I thought you meant this one. Only one iron bar + 1 torch.

    Didn't realize the aforementioned item had a recipe.

    Yes: after making one, I never understood what the Lantern was for or what possible purpose it could serve or why you hold it like a weapon.

    I was hoping there'd be a way of crafting them, or scanning/printing them.

    It should be noted at this point that the Standing Oil Lamp can be scanned and printed:

    But I'm going for the Oil Lantern, which cannot be scanned or printed:

    I collected 47 of them before an update was released that suggested making a new universe. Now I'm building a giant wooden base carved out of a mountain on my starting world, and I'm out of Oil Lanterns.
