Fire

Fire burning in Foundry metalworks.

Fire is an environmental hazard. Burning ground is very dangerous as it deals both flat and percentage of max health damage so you cannot ignore it even on high levels. The intensity of the flames depends on the power of the fire source and multiple sources of fire can stack.

Creatures standing in the fire suffer heat damage equal to 6%-15% of their maximal health (up to maximum of 16-40), plus additional 7-29, depending on the intensity of fire at that spot, while creatures moving through the fire suffer one third of that damage per tile.

Fire was added in version alpha 0.1.13.0 and first introduced in Dev Log #34 before it.
