A proper flashlight implementation is beyond the scope of this features test mod. However we know that the JA2 1.13 is able to calculate definable arcs in "front" of a particular merc (this is the limited field of view feature). The FOV definition code could then be combined with something that raised the illumination level of the affected tiles. Likely it would also necessitate a new item type that specifically took FOV and range variables and produce the illuminated arc effect.

As far as an on/off, please see: JA2 1.13 .exe Wish List? 1) No Item Merger in my first post. (Have two items, one flashlight on, one off; click on item's attachment slot to convert between the two.)

The "negative" effects of my flashlight are self illumination by the range being so low on the LAM-200 launcher, and the "noise" of the launcher.

I thought The Scorpion gave up on the flashlight due to the illuminated grenades not being possible until just recently. The only reason I took a shot at this was because illuminated grenades are now a proven capability.
