I tend to prefer lighters to matchbooks, so when I spot one I pick it up.  They of course have 100 uses when I first get them.

I've noticed for a few games now that when I go to light my first fire with it (often 1-4 game days after picking it up) the lighter is already at 98-96 charges.

Do they leak when carried now?

Are my character's secretly pyros?

In the cold of the night, are they flicking the lighter on to warm their hands or something, and not bothering to tell me?

Use a crowbar on them. You can find nice things in them.

The crate was empty.
Take it apart for the nails.

Oh, and it seems that

I smashed it, but for some reason it took ~30 hits despite 11 strength. Weird.

This is what Half-Life has done to gamers as a whole. Well, one of the things. The other is seeing vent grates as being equally viable as doors.
But the crowbar thing is probably bigger.

Apply the crowbar to pry open things like crates, doors and windows.

I think I misunderstood, I thought he had smashed it with the crowbar instead of applying first.

No. I opened it, found that it was empty, and then smashed it.

"Crates" I think are metal or tough wood construction, the sort that's dropped by airdrop.  So yes, they are pretty tough to smash.

Shower victims need to start only with a towel.

And towels need to be clothing.


Also, we need people starting off with a blanket, long underwhere and nothing else. Not even a knife.

Time to panic - shower victims lack even the towel.  No knife or anything else either.
