Is it possible to trap the clouds of syndrome stuff in evil biomes?

I've tried, but never got anywhere with it. It goes through constructed walls, magma, and water.

Does it go through natural walls, like stone? If so, you could cast obsidian.

Hmm. Theoretically possible, but difficult to test. If it can enter underground tiles (carved into the side of a mountain), then this could be made easier, as you would have to cast less obsidian. Otherwise, you would have to create a large area enclosed in constructed walls. There would be an inner wall and outer wall, with a gap in between. Have the gap pre-filled with water/magma. When the gas enters the area, pump in the other liquid and see if the gas can pass through it. And make sure it doesn't just go over the top (if it can even do that).
