Proc Details
attackby
allows lighting an unlit candle from some fire source by left clicking the candle with the source
check_wax_level
Just checks the wax level of the candle for displaying the correct sprite.
This gets called in process() every tick. If the wax level has changed, then we call our update.
try_light_candle
Try to ignite the candle.
Candles are ignited a bit differently from flares, in that they must be manually lit from other fire sources. This will perform all the necessary checks to ensure that can happen, and display a message if it worked.
Arguments:
- obj/item/fire_starter - the item being used to ignite the candle.
- mob/user - the user to display a message to.
- quiet - suppresses the to_chat message.
- silent - suppresses the balloon alerts as well as the to_chat message.
