Closed IvanBajlo closed 2 years ago

btw can fire jump across the wall?

IvanBajlo commented 2 years ago

neverminded, yes fire can jump across walls, which makes walls useless as a way of halting fires from spreading

add proper foundations that won't burn to your wall ;)

Also, this is for debugging and feature request, not general commentary

IvanBajlo commented 2 years ago

so water plants catching fire isn't a bug and walls should be built on floors??? yeah that makes perfect sense :-p

SerialKicked commented 2 years ago

Fire formula is not going to check for water below fuel source each single time an individual fire tile needs that info for performances reasons. Not gonna waste CPU cycles over such an inconsequential side effect.

Walls should be built on proper foundations, not "floors". But that, that's a behavior I might change, even if it makes fire a lot less interesting behavior wise.

IvanBajlo commented 2 years ago

ok, so what the heck are foundations??? this is the first time I have ever heard that term! at lest in this game... the only other game that I know of required foundations to build on water...

SerialKicked commented 2 years ago

The tile the wall is built upon is its foundation.

Don't bother anyway, I changed the feature given how confusing it seems to sounds. Fire proof walls will no longer let fire pass (except if it's a fence, like the metal fence, or well the wooden fence, but this one goes without saying).
