now, nether caps are set to th equivilent of 0 degrees, so im assuming water freezes at thattemperature as well. the questiion being, can you use nether caps or products to cause water to freeze on demand?

[Saiko Kila]

Nether cap walls I created have normal temperature (10015 U when underground), the same goes with temperature of tiles with nether-cap ballistas. Water flowing around them is not frozen at all. More, they can have temperature of fire and greater and are then named for example "Warm Nether-cap log wall".

Only good thing is that nether-cap ballistas are resistant to fire, dragon fire etc. (though dragon fire can damage XXthemXX sometimes, and of course it destroys arrows, so they clearly don't protect objects being on the same tiles). I haven't created nether-cap floors, but I believe they behave in the same way.

Floors and walls are indestructible.  A bituminous coal block floor will support magma.

That being said, a wooden pump will ignite when pushing magma, but I've heard that nether cap pumps will remain safe.  The thing is, nether caps will resist temperature where temperature matters - it doesn't matter for constructions, and it doesn't influence its own temperature, it simply resists other temperature effects upon itself.  Try submerging a nether cap barrel in magma, if it's working the way I believe, then it won't ignite.  If so, you could have nether cap pumps, floor grates, floodgates, ect.

It's a good thing elves are afraid of making torches to get Nether-caps, huh?

Are you suggesting elves build nether-cap submarines to counter the dwarves' artificial armageddon?

awwww, you spoiled it?

in all seriousness, the above is correct.

I'm pretty sure nether cap magma pumps have worked.
