<p>104.138.139.183: Change to indicate smoke is harmless, confirmed by Putam via discord. Putnam: looking at it, it causes a bad thought, same as miasma, essentially</p> <hr /> <div>{{Quality|Superior}}<br /> {{av}}<br /> [[File:smoke_preview_anim.gif|right]]Where there's '''smoke''', there's [[fire]]. When items burn, they release smoke into the surrounding area. The presence of smoke means that it is reasonably close to a source of fire, which can cause [[fun]] times. Like [[miasma]], smoke can easily cross z-levels up or down through openings. If you see smoke, you have (or very recently had) a fire burning somewhere nearby and should take action. (Since fire is deadly and can easily spread, this is bad enough by itself.)<br /> <br /> [[File:smoke_preview.png|thumb|120px|right|Do not inhale. Even in ASCII mode.]]Dwarves that inhale smoke will get unhappy thoughts, but is otherwise harmless.<br /> <br /> Most materials have boiling points, and you will occasionally see things like [[steam]] or boiling clouds of copper, especially if you're playing with [[magma]]. If you accidentally drop some [[coal]] or [[coke]] into magma, you get generic smoke.<br /> <br /> Minor testing has indicated that smoke, from the moment the source disappears, takes approximately 7 seconds to dissipate. This dissipation is noticeable, as the smoke tile will change many times throughout this interval, indicating the smoke's drop in density. If smoke seems to persist for more than this time, it is possible that there is an unseen source or that a [[Bug]] has been encountered.{{verify}} [[Artifact|Artifacts]] that catch fire will [[Fire#Artifacts|burn and generate smoke forever]] unless extinguished.<br /> <br /> [[File:smoke_ex.jpg|thumb|230px|center|Where there's smoke...]]<br /> <br /> {{Translation<br /> | dwarven = mezum<br /> | elvish = thafa<br /> | goblin = uspsast<br /> | human = ipan<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{Category|Fortress mode}}<br /> {{Category|Physics}}<br /> [[ru:Smoke]]</div>
