So it was suggested the fire should spread to adjacent tiles. I made it not propagate on purpose to avoid the problem where you end up burning the whole world. If everyone agrees the fire should spread I could make it happen though. Just let me know

I can test when I'm done work..but Ive often wondered- does pouring gasoline on the ground make the tile more flammable? Or does the gasoline disappear?

If you happen to know, and it disappears.. You could add kerosene (or use gasoline) and allow the user to spread it on the ground to burn down a house or light a field on fire :)

Someday burning cars? Either way <3 keep up the good work


Edit-
Tires..

Ever seen one burn? Just a thought :D

Would it be possible to make the spread a toggle able option? Assuming its possible to make the fire spread then go out like vanilla.

Should be possible yeah

I also like the idea of a deployable item like pouring gas on the ground like CaseyJones32 mentioned, and seeing how B41 brought interactable rain puddles into the game I wonder if that would even be possible to mod in.

Also, adding a recipe for sheets of paper would be cool as well.

we should add a "pyromaniac" trait
it works like "smoker" but with fire instead of cigarettes
you get stressed when you don't set stuff on fire

Izadumb1: Agreed. I added this to the TODO list:
- Add Pyromaniac trait that make you stressed/unhappy if you dont put things on fire

Not sure how many points you should earn for this trait though, cause it's not very hard to light a fire. I'm thinking one or two max

I'd say the point earn should be 1-2 if the fires won't spread, and you can easily double it if the fires will spread.

more fire damage with pyromaniac trait, different fire sources deal different fire damage

Michał: I guess I could make the fire a bit stronger for pyromaniacs. But what kind of different fire damage would you expect?

20/30/50% more as you see fit. It would be nice if the damage was higher or lower depending on the weather:
Hot days - more damage. rainy days - less fire damage

ah I see, that could be done

also I'm thinking about the possibility to use more than one flammable to light a fire, like you have to put your flammables on the target square, that way players could decide how strong should the fire be. What do you think everyone?

@co
That would be nice to have some variation for fire intensity based on amount of materials used.
Would it be possible to have a partial stress reduction when using the lighter as a light source?
