Fires
Campfires, iron fire pits, hearths, and bonfires pause when no player is within 10 m. Walk back and they relight with the same fuel. They still burn in the daytime while you cook.
Lights
Sconces, standing torches, colored torches, wisp torches, braziers, jack-o-turnip, and lava lanterns:
- Empty building at night: off.
- Windowed hall in full daylight: off, even if you are standing in it.
- Sealed pit / basement with no openings: on only while someone is within 10 m, day or night.
Always burn
Vanilla pieces have no on/off control. Alt+E on a fire or light pins it to Always burn (vanilla fuel use). Alt+E again returns it to Managed. Hover text shows which mode it is in.
Compatibility
Stay-lit mods that force Fireplace.IsBurning true conflict — this mod runs last and still pauses. Smelters, kilns, and ovens are not touched.
