− | + | Currently, magma-safe materials are known to include [[iron]], [[steel]], [[bauxite]], and [[adamantine]], but currently it is difficult to control magma flow with floodgates since mechanisms must be made out of [[Rock|rocks]], most of which are non-magma-safe materials (Bauxite being a notable exception).

− | + | Mechanisms made from raw adamantine are magma-safe, and will properly operate a magma-safe floodgate in a magma channel. The mechanism on the trigger need not be magma-safe, only the one on the floodgate. In order to construct mechanisms from raw adamantine, you must first allow its use for non-economic purposes in the stock screen ({{key|z}} and select 'stone'). You might wish to remove other stone-using jobs while adamantine is available for use. | |

− | + | According to the raw data files, magma's temperature is somewhere between 1300°C and 1400°C, which translates to 2300°F–2500°F . | |
