− | + | [[Fire-safe]] materials are those that are not damaged by [[fire]]. These materials include glass, (most) metal (tin has a low enough melting point to turn into a pool of tin if exposed to fire), ash, and most stone. Only [[nether-cap]] wood is fire-safe; all other types of wood are not. [[Bituminous coal]], [[lignite]], [[charcoal]], and [[coke]] are all flammable and ought not be fire-safe, but the bug mentioned below allows them to be used as fire-safe building materials. Furthermore, the game only considers [[bar]]s, [[block]]s, [[stone]], [[log]]s, and [[anvil]]s to be capable of being fire-safe - all other item types are rejected outright. | |
Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as all conventional [[furnace]]s and the [[metalsmith's forge|forge]]. For the magma-powered versions of these buildings, as well as anything that will be in direct contact with magma (such as [[floodgate]]s), fire-safe material is not enough: it has to be [[magma-safe]]. | Fire-safe materials are only required when the object is going to come into contact with extreme heat, such as all conventional [[furnace]]s and the [[metalsmith's forge|forge]].

Despite this temperature being considered fire-safe, actual [[fire]] can generate temperatures significantly higher (in particular, any burning item will heat up to 200 degrees above its material's ignite point).{{bug|5011}} |
