More Uses for Lighters and Matches

Description
You got tired of lighters and matchbooks only having 5 uses?
I did - hence this.

Default values are 100 uses for lighters and 20 uses for matchbooks.
This can be changed in Sandbox Settings.

Error free
I have successfully tested it on both new and existing saves. (and 100s of mods enabled at the same time)
- Existing saves only inherits the default values

Keep in mind - that it will only affect newly spawned items.
Already discovered lighters and matchbooks will stay at 5 uses.

Known issues:

B42 Rain's Pack Your Loot
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3490159683&searchtext=B42+Rain%27s+Pack+Your+Loot

These two mods consumes units, not actual items - will be eternal spawn if you pack and unpack

[B42] Sandbox Options

I cannot get it to work with this mod. Even after changing the values and applying changes - the settings set before the game applies.
So if you want higher values than the defaults - it requires a new save.

Does it work on LighterZ gold lighter?

@Fun Police I'm looking for the same thing so I will make a mod for that soon

Sorry, my bad, Events.OnInitGlobalModData is what you should use to get sandbox variables.

If you read the sandbox settings on a different trigger (ie Events.OnGameBoot) it will work for existing saves too.

@RunYouCleverBoy - what rarity are you thinking of? Loot chance - that should be done by general loot settings

@Black_moons - disposable lighters are on my to-do list. Real life's been busy AF lately, so no ETA. Regarding the sandbox settings - can't replicate, besides the things already mentioned in the description

@Nord - seems you need to do some troubleshooting, as it sounds like a mod messing something up somewhere

@Fun Police - not in the plans for now, but something I'll take into consideration

Would it be possible to add uses to sacks of sand, dirt, and gravel? I haven't seen any mods like this for B42 yet, and think that expanding could be nice

I seem to have the opposite problem where all of my lighters and matches have infinite fuel, so they never run out... I was hoping this mod would fix that but no dice. Anyone know what might be causing my lighters and matches to never run out?

Sandbox settings don't seem to do anything. Reguardless of sandbox settings I get '[MoreUses] Applying MaxLighterUses = 100, MaxMatchesUses = 20' in my log.

Can you add disposable lighters too? 5 uses is crazy low.
