Is there a way to use an item (e.g. a mushroom to heal) in Terraria without placing it on the hotbar first? I know about the "use health potion" shortcut but I wonder if there's a general way that works for any item type (e.g. a single buff potion).

In Terraria 1.0.4 devs added an auto save option:
- Added an option to automatically save the world every 10 minutes. Defaults to on.
According to Terraria's official wiki page on Water Candles:
Holding a Water Candle in your hand will increase the monster spawn probability to 133% and the maximum number of monsters to 150%.
They produce light like a regular torch or candle would. If you have them on tables as props, they produce some lovely spooky lighting. However, they don't increase the spawn rate like this.
To increase the spawn rate with a water candle, hold it in your hand. It can't just be in the top row of your inventory - it must be the currently active and held item.
Keep a weapon handy so that you can swap back and forth between your water candle and weapon as necessary. You can't hold both at the same time, but you can at least run around luring enemies out with your water candle, attack them all, then return to luring enemies out.

Click to pick it up, then click again outside your inventory. (Works with magic mirror, anyway.) Autopause needs to be turned off for this to work. In the case of tools, holding shift will automatically use the tool appropriate for the type of object your cursor is over.
