Title: W - 0.12.906 Graves Can be Used to Prevent the Spread of Fire
Post by: 1BadPanda on August 23, 2015, 08:11:05 AM
I'll let you guys determine if this is a bug or not, but graves aren't flammable and they don't deteriorate.  Perfect for fire prevention around a geothermal generator and the exterior wall of the colony.

Not sure if a bug, more like an exploit. I hope it will be fixed somehow, I am personally not going to use it because it feels like cheating though.

I agree.  Maybe make it so that grass grows on the grave (possibly gives a debuff for unkempt grave), or make the grave gradually deteriorate.

It's like you are creating a firebreak, which is something people do in real life. Currently I normally just put a floor down to act as a firebreak, but I don't see an issue with doing that with graves.

Nothing wrong here. You can get the same effect for 2 metal by just building some concrete.
