Flare (Subnautica)

The Flare is a Tool that is crafted using the fabricator.

It allows the player to illuminate dark caves with a stationary light source, thus making it easier for the player to defend himself or to spot resources.

Uses
The Flare can be ignited and thrown by selecting it from the toolbar and pressing RMB.

The player can also pick up a Flare after it has been ignited. This will cause the Flare to go out. If the player selects it again, it will appear without the red protection cap on and it will give off smoke. It can also be reignited and thrown again.
