Not working on 0.40.x?[edit]
So, I made a reservoir that flows over a series of downward stairs that are directly above magma.

- Obsidian casting will not work in a tile that is listed as a "magma flow". You can, however, force it to work by ordering your dwarves to build an "up stair" in the tile. You'll need to wait until the tick right after the water drops in and the magma disappears to issue the order, but your dwarves should have no trouble actually building it. Once built, magma and water will combine in the tile to form obsidian.
