This article is about an older version of DF.

Template:Human

Fire-safe materials are Template:L Template:L that cannot catch on Template:L. These include Template:L, Template:L, and Template:L. Template:L is not a fire-safe material, and neither is Template:L or Template:L (even though they are Template:L). Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as a Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L or Template:L, or for Template:L versions of these facilities.

Template:L materials, such as Template:L blocks, which are consumed in the purification of Template:L to produce Template:L, are considered fire-safe. It is perfectly fine to use Template:L as a flux material to make steel in a limestone smelter. Template:L is also a fire-safe material... somehow. Constructions will never melt or burn, but natural ice walls/floors/ramps/stairs will.

Note that constructions (Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L) can never burn, regardless of what they're made of.

Not to be confused with Template:L. Many fire-safe materials will still melt when submerged in Template:L, but that is not necessary for buildings that are powered by the stuff 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.
