The minimap is a little disorienting. I'm expecting the minimap to follow the unlocked camera rather than stay locked onto the player characters.

In the first dungeon, I saw an oil spill and tried throwing the candles onto the oil to ignite it and it didn't work frown. Not a big deal though.

Thanks for implementing a take all button! Also making containers close when you walk away is huge for me! I'm the guy with carpal tunnel and those changes really help. One other huge thing that would help would be a Use button. So instead of double clicking doors, containers, and NPCs you could hit a keyboard key to "Use". Like the way U worked in Ultima 6.

Really impressed by the combat changes and everything else! I really like the fact there's no "reveal" button like in earlier builds. Now you have to search for things rather than hit a key and not think at all.

I've been wishing we could do the same thing, but I think the "problem" might be that the candle models are "locked" with the flame at the top, so right now you're just putting the wax end in the oil, which wouldn't be expected to ignite the oil (if that makes sense). But I agree that if it's an interactable object that's on fire (including also coal baskets/braziers), you should be able to somehow use it to ignite oil.

You only need to single click on containers, doors and NPCs.

I agree on the mini map. It should be fixed to the camera/mouse position and not to the player position.
