Magma Furnaces
« on: October 26, 2010, 05:50:43 pm »

Is there a way to remove the requirement for an uncovered magma feature without entirely removing their requirement for magma as a fuel source? I've been messing around with the Hell Hole generator, and the fact that the actual presence of magma does not allow me to build magma furnaces is really bugging me. Is this a side effect of the [NEEDS_MAGMA] tag?

The magma workshops can only be built once you strike the Magma sea.
I've not toyed around with it fully yet, but try generating a volcano type Hellhole and drop something like a floor or wall square down it. If it goes into the magma sea, then you'll be able to build the magma workshops.

Failing that, just remove the [FUEL] tag from the reaction_smelter. :P
