Can this be considered an incinerator?

So, while I was streaming today, some attackers went insane in my maze, threw a few molotovs at each other and set some junk on fire that was pressent in the maze. I took the opportunity and walled the entrance to the maze, this made the maze to be an indoors place. If you look carefully, a guy that I've selected at 4:42 got set on fire at 4:46 without having contact with fire. Take a look at this, maybe you'll get some ideas on how to make a legit incinerator.

Yeah, I removed the video cause it was quite shite. But after that previuos expierence I designed a proper human incinerator. Works great, but don't know if it will be effective against mechanoids. Prolly not...

Well a walled area with a fire in it will quickly get the temp up to crazy numbers, I'm pretty sure fires can start with a high enough temp. (didnt watch the video btw)

That's a terrible way to die. Great video.

So cruel yet... So beautiful.
200 degrees Celsius is no joke.
I wonder... Must test this idea some more...
Great find, I didn't know they could set on fire, only thought they got really hot and freak out.

Bravo! This makes me curious as to whether cold can be used to create an icebox.

If things get hot enough in a contained area, everything in that room that is remotely flammable will catch light. If temperature reaches autoignition temperatures, fwoosh.

... 200 C seems AWFULLY low for autoignition of human flesh. Should be closer to 600-800 C?

Well, I believe the highest temperature a room gets (using debug menu for lightening in an enclosed room full of people [the corpses made nice like campfires]) is 2000℃, so there's your goal :P

Kind of: http://youtu.be/sn1oyE8DbIU (note that sub-absolute zero temperatures were fixed)

Why is it that burning corpses heat a room so efficiently but if I make a small room filled with heaters (set to max)  it caps out at like 100°c?

ZestyLemons

Fire is a little silly in terms of heating, it needs a temperature cap too.

As for heaters, you can just say they weren't designed for that. Also, they're flammable.
