Fire Pit

"You won't last a day without a fire pit."

- Lapsi

The Fire Pit is a small building that generates a medium sized area of light around it. It is one of the first Survival buildings to be acquired in the game and an integral part in any encampment.

Fire Pit vs Death Gale
During the day the Fire Pit is unremarkable. Its usefulness is noted only after the Death Gale covers the world, at which point it forms a hole in the darkness not unlike the Supplicant's eye of the storm.

When ignited, the Fire Pit's light completely shields the player from the negative effects of Corruption.

The Fire Pit's light is also currently the only way to repel alerted Revenants. The Death Gale begins affecting the player as soon as they exit the Fire Pit's protective light.
 * Revenants return to roaming once the see the player is inside the light.
 * Sometimes a Revenant may enter the light area after performing a charge. In this scenario it will teleport outside of the light area and then continue roaming.

Fire and fuel
To maintain the flame alive and the area of light, the player must feed the Fire Pit fuel every so often.

The more fuel a Fire Pit is fed, the brighter its flame and the larger the radius of its light.

To feed the Fire Pit, the player simply needs to interact with the building while having at least one item in their inventory that can be used as fuel.

Currently, the Fire Pit can only consume Wood and Wood Planks as fuel. Each item has a fuel value that determines for how long they prolong the life of the flame when consumed. The Fire Pit has a maximum amount of fuel it can convert into fire.
 * A single piece of Wood adds 120 seconds of life to the flame.
 * A Wood Plank adds 360 seconds.
 * When at maximum capacity, the Fire Pit's flame lasts 1200 seconds, or 20 minutes. This is equivalent to an entire day and storm cycle.
 * Adding more fuel after this maximum has been reached with not increase the size of the flame nor the light area.
 * When built, the Fire Pit starts with 50% of its maximum amount of fuel.
