Well, here I am. I know there is magma in this area, somewhere. I just cannot find it. I was just wondering, what strategy do you guys use to find that bit of magma on the map?

I always used to go the cheap way and use reveal to find the pipe and then save scum. That won't work now, as tweak doesn't work for the newest version, which means that reveal doesn't work either.

There's often a 'cap' above the magma pipe: obsidian, dead grass, etc. If there's absolutely no indication, then try to remember which square it was on in the embark screen. Try to hit the middle of that square with your mining.

If it's a pipe, I prefer going to the bottom Z level and doing exploratory mining there.
