For Modders – Adding Held Light Source Compatibility

Wearable Lanterns makes a necessary edit to the TorchEvents IdleAnimation record in order to support held lanterns. Only one mod can edit this record at a time.

You can make your mod that introduces held light sources compatible with Wearable Lanterns by doing the following:

• Make a version of your mod that does not edit the TorchEvents IdleAnimation record.
• Add your light source to the _WL_HeldLanterns FormList at runtime using a script. Example code provided below. (This example is for illustration purposes only and is not very robust; for instance, this example checks for Wearable Lanterns once and then never again. You should expand it in order to meet your needs and your individual use case.)
