Stupid question about Volcanos...
« on: January 29, 2012, 11:36:46 pm »

Do they erupt on this game?
Like if your playing fortress mode and you were near one, or under one.
Is it possible for them to erupt? cause that would be funny as hell if this was added. LMAO

You could always try to "manually" make it erupt...

I've read about manual way...
But if it did on it's own; it would be much more interesting; because
it gives us a reason to panic...

But panicking = more fun.
But whatever, I was just asking a question.

Magma isn't naturally pressurized like water from rivers or murky pools.

You can always just cap off the Volcano, put a few floodgates in, set up a few dozen pumps to run forever and then open the floodgates.

I believe someone made a magma cannon once using a similar design, but it didn't fire far enough to be a viable weapon.

You could cave in part of the volcano 1 z lvl down, and forever be blessed with continuously vomiting lava. Or pumps.
