[40d16]Swarm of Flies around fire imp remains in magma

My military took care of the fire imp problem in the magma pipe. The various part of the fire imps have attracted flies. Problem is these parts are fully submerged in magma and so are the flies.

Yeah, flies have this whole magma-immune thing going on. I think it may tie in to the fact that they're vermin?

Perhaps they're fire flies?

the fix should be in the next version. Though they could be made of adamantium or kevlar or something by accident.
