Pyro-fail
« on: February 05, 2011, 09:44:43 pm »

Ok so I've been watching lets plays lately of adventure mode, and I've seen people set fires and have them spread...I set a tree on fire and it....sits there in isolation burning nothing else around it...I want to use tactics like The  Mighty Dwarf Nus Uzt, but I cant. Im currently playing Deons Wasteland mod, yes ,yes, you are wondering Wasteland? thats why you cant burn trees. There ARE trees. I just ignite them and they sit there not even burning to death themselves, just on fire, you know? Does this in genesis too. Help?

Those LPs were probably from an older version. You could do that in 40d for sure. I'm not sure when it changed; I've honestly not messed with fire much.

Is there water on anything, and how hot/cold is it outside?

A fire will only spread in non-humid temperate conditions, if you're in a cold or humid area the fire will stay contained, or might not even start.

A commodity appears at first sight an extremely obvious, trivial thing. But its analysis brings out that it is a very strange thing, abounding in metaphysical subtleties and theological niceties.

Really, so fire spreads in .18?

The things I set on fire just sit there and burn, when I leave and come back later the tree or similar is still there, unharmed.

I accidentally set fire to a section of my map in fort mode, burned and spread merrily until it started raining.
