Quick temperature question.
« on: November 10, 2009, 11:21:46 pm »

What's the temperature point at which your standard critter (ie. one without a COLDDAM_POINT) will start taking cold damage?  I want to try creating a hazardous material that uses freezing to simulate dangerous radiation.

EDIT: Never mind, I discovered via searching that what I wanted to do is impossible.  I am saddened by this.

Were you trying to make a rock with a very low temperature to hurt anything that touched it? Yeah, that wouldn't work. Maybe you could try using the SPEC_HEAT to make it heat up to dangerous levels, very rapidly? The lowest I'm aware of is Gold with 129, so just maybe if you set it to single digits, you might be able to burn a few fingers.
