(Adventure) Eternal campfire?
« on: September 12, 2013, 11:32:40 pm »
I'm stuck inside a lair because of a campfire that simply won't go out. I've waited/sleeped over 30 hours already, and the wiki says it should go out by itself in a few hours. I've just ran out of water and am worried. I tried throwing sand and water at the fire already, so I guess that doesn't work at all. What do I do?

It's a sort of a bug that campfires don't seem to go out in adventure mode if you remain close. You could try alt-moving over it, which lets you enter hazardous terrain, and run to the nearest body of water

Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.

I'm pretty sure campfires are treated as solid objects.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

A wizard has turned you into a wagon. This was inevitable (Y/y)?

They at least go out in really cold places while sleeping...

Another book entitled Start Your Day with Extinction.
Must be the next book in the series after Start Your Day with Death.

I tried and it doesn't work. You can't willingly step into a campfire, not even with Alt+movement.

If you have to you can use DFHack's Liquids command to throw some obsidian floor down and open the path up. Or AdvFort if you have it.
