Editing 40d:Fire-safe

[[Fire-safe materials]] are building materials that cannot catch on [[Fire|fire]].  These include [[Stone|stone]], [[Glass|glass]], and [[Metal|metal]].  [[Wood]] is not a fire-safe material. Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as near magma. 

Flux materials, such as limestone blocks, which are burnt up in the purification of pig iron to produce steel, are considered fire-safe. It is perfectly fine to burn calcite as a flux making steel in a limestone furnace. [[Ice]] is also fire-safe material. Construction will never melt or burn, but natural ice walls/floors/ramps/stairs will.

Note that constructions ([[Wall]], [[Floor]], [[Ramp]], [[Stairs]]) can never burn, regardless of what they're made of.

Not to be confused with [[magma-safe materials]]. Most fire-safe materials will still melt when in contact with magma.

-[[Fire-safe]] materials are [[building]] [[material]]s that are not damaged by [[fire]]. These include [[stone]], [[glass]], and [[metal]]. [[Wood]] is not a fire-safe material, and neither are [[charcoal]] or [[coke]] (even though they are [[bar]]s). Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as a [[wood furnace]], [[smelter]], [[forge]], [[kiln]] or [[glass furnace]], or for [[magma]] versions of these facilities.
-[[Flux]] materials, such as [[limestone]] blocks, which are consumed in the purification of [[pig iron]] to produce [[steel]], are considered fire-safe. It is perfectly fine to use [[limestone]] as a flux material to make steel in a limestone smelter. Constructions will never melt or burn, regardless of what they're made of, but natural ice walls/floors/ramps/stairs will melt.

-Fire-safety is intended to require the item's material to be stable at the temperature {{ct|11000}} (i.e. MELTING_POINT/BOILING_POINT/IGNITE_POINT/HEATDAM_POINT greater than 11000 and COLDDAM_POINT less than 11000).
+Note that constructions ([[Wall]], [[Floor]], [[Ramp]], [[Stairs]]) can never burn, regardless of what they're made of.
-This is not to be confused with [[magma-safe materials]]; many fire-safe materials will still melt when submerged in [[magma]]. Generally, though, using fire-safe materials is sufficient for buildings that are powered by magma or items like doors or floodgates that may be adjacent to or in contact with magma, but are never surrounded on all sides by it.

-==Bugs==
-All fire-safety checks are broken in this version, repeatedly checking the IGNITE_POINT 5 times instead of checking each individual temperature ({{bug|4573}}). In practice, this only affects the ability to select building components for the [[metalsmith's forge]] and various types of [[furnace]]s.
-The following patch for version 0.28.184.40d for Windows fixes both fire-safety and [[magma-safe]]ty checks:
