minor overhaul and example images, more to come as I manage to get lamps imped. kinda difficult with 3 skill in metallurgy though :p
=== Usage ===
Lamps are used to light an area, unlike . Unlike [[lantern]]s , they can be planted much like a [[sign]] without the 1 per week timer, and like a sign they can only be picked up by the planter. When lamps are placed on a [[deed]], they will light themselves in the evening, and all lamps will go out in the morning(even lamps in mines)The one week delay of being able to plant does not apply though.
=== Hint ===Lamps can be made out of any metal (confirmed by Oracle) although apparently not zinc. When attaching the lamps are placed on a [[log]] to the [[lamp headdeed]], it's they will light themselves in the log that determines the success rateevening, and if you fail you lose all lamps will go out in the log while the lamp head is turned to a scrap. If you succeed to make a lamp, the whole log is usedmorning(even lamps in mines).
== Notes ==* When creating, the [[quality]] of the log affects your success chance.* When creating, the quality of the [[lamp head]] affects the initial quality of the resulting [[lamp]].* If you fail creating, the log is lost and you create a [[metal scrap]] (0.80kg).* Lamp heads from different metals may differ in their light intensity, for example [[brass]] lamps illuminate the area better than [[iron]] lamps.* Lamps take need 0.125[[kg]] of [[tar]] or [[olive oil]] as fuel to fill to max capacity, and painting them takes .* Consumes 0.06kg of [[dye]]. Like a lanternwhen painting, the dye will also affect the colour of the light the lamp emmits.* The higher the quality they are of the lamp and the fuel, the brighter they shine.  === Material specialities ===* [[Brass ]] lamps glow the brightest. * [[Bronze]] lamps give a deep brown.* [[Copper]] lamps glow orange.* [[Silver ]] lamps cast white light, copper . <gallery caption="Examples with QL38 lamps glow orange, and bronze lamps give a deep brown(courtesy of Bianca)using QL66 [[tar]]" widths="100px" heights="100px" perrow="6">Image:IronLampAtNight.png|A lit [[iron]] lamp at night.Image:BrassLampAtNight.png|A lit [[brass]] lamp at night. </gallery>
