— Item Description |
About
Flares are throwable, temporary light sources that are crucial to surviving in the caverns of Hoxxes IV.
By default, Flares are thrown using the F key on a keyboard and the B button on a controller. After throwing a flare, it will bounce around on surfaces, typically settling at the bottom of caverns. Flares regenerate over time, and up to three are held at once. This can be increased to four flares with the Extra Flares modification.
Flares will provide light for 25 seconds by default, and 30 seconds with the Burning Duration modification. After flares burn out, the light source will die down to a small glow. Burnt out flares can still be seen in the darkness, indicating the presence of a team mate.
While Gunner and Scout have High-Intensity Flares, Engineer and Driller have Red Flares. There is no difference between both types, despite the color of light they emit.

Trivia
- In the closed alpha version of the game, flares were limited and didnt regenerate over time. Once the supply of flares ran out, the dwarves had to rely on their headlights to survive.
