I've removed Flashlights from being able to be manufactured in constructors, and increased their "build time" such that one Flashlight added to a blueprint will contribute negligible resources, but will shave 42 minutes off the blueprint's build time.
As such, they are now for sale on numerous NPC merchants for 42000 credits each.
I figure 1000 credits a minute was a fair starting point. I can adjust as we need/see fit.
I wanted to use F&F charges, but getting them back into the game and configured properly turned out to be too difficult to make work, so here we are.
Flashlights are for sale at:
Bertram's
Servant Corp
MACorp Mining
Pax Purgatory
Resources
Basic Components
Exotic Materials
