Title: New Event: Firestorm
Post by: Barley on September 22, 2014, 10:32:55 PM
*For Forests and dry areas with lots of fauna.

Blurb:
The temperature rises drastically and you look upon the horizon to discover a wall of flames stretching for miles in both directions!

Spawns a wall of flames along the entirety of a single map border. Flame spread is temporarily boosted. Rain disabled for a couple weeks. Have fun!

ive had half my map on fire before, and it slows things way down.  my mountain base was unaffected.  my outdoor constructions were insulated by a single tile of flooring that fire couldnt pass.

Stone walls and concrete. Just stick everybody inside and you are safe.

You were pretty lucky, then, fire can jump up to two blocks away, even straight through walls. I had my battery array catch fire this way.

really?  when i have power lines running from vents to my base, i just put concrete down under them and one on each side, need a direct hit from lightning to damage.  never had any issues with any big fires touching them over every game ive ever played since i started doing it.
