Unhappy Candles not going out properly

I've noticed that at some times the candles don't go out, the light level drops once you "action" the candle, but the flame stays in place. This doesn't always happen, it didn't happen at all on the training levels, but seems to happen a lot in the city. I went back to a save of the 2nd training level to check and all was fine, wierd thing was the candles in the city were ok afterwards! exiting the game and even rebooting had not previously made any difference.

Wierd one eh!

I noticed that too when I played. It wouldn't go out, even when I was messing around, and shot a water arrow into it.

I've seen this as well, but only in one spot. I think it was inside the gem cutter's house.

Happens here all the time. But as long as the shadow-value is applied correctly, I can live with it. Should be on the TOPATCH list tho...

I'm now playing the level in the Hammer church and so far I've found two candles that I couldn't extinguish, the candlesticks are not selectable! One is in the bunk room on a table near where the first magic user (I've encountered) in the game is standing. The other is nearby in a room with a guard standing next to it.

If these are supposed to be like this I'm dissapointed, where's the consistency? and if they arn't I'm dissapointed because it's a bug!

That would bring up the next question: Why am I unable to extinguish those oil-lamps altho I clearly see the dial that controls the wick?

All broken, sure thing...
