I plan to search for the default melting point (by setting my adventurer to FIXED_TEMP at various levels and seeing at what point rocks melt) - as a baseline, does anyone know if a magma man (temp 12,000) will melt ordinary stone? We know magma itself (temp 12,568) will. Also, what's the basis for the claim that magma's temperature is 12568?

Is it possible to check the current temp from inside a Dwarf Fortress main game?[[User:Kenji 03|Kenji 03]] 15:03, 18 July 2009 (UTC) | Is it possible to check the current temp from inside a Dwarf Fortress main game?[[User:Kenji 03|Kenji 03]] 15:03, 18 July 2009 (UTC) | ||
− | == | + | ==Magma Temperature== |
− | + | The listed temperature of magma is 12568, though when I use Dtil to examine tiles containing magma, it lists a temperature of exactly 12000. I'm not sure if this is an issue of outdated information or dtil adjusting values. By comparison, excavated underground tiles have a temperature of 10015, and outdoor tiles currently vary from 10051 to 10056 (early Autumn, and I'm in a Temperate climate where water neither evaporates nor freezes). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 00:06, 23 August 2009 (UTC) | |
− | + | *As a further test, I dropped some pig iron bars (which have a melting point of 12106) into some magma and let them sit in there for about a month. They never melted. I can only assume that the tests that led to the conclusion of magma's temperature being 12568 were performed incorrectly. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 21:09, 20 October 2009 (UTC) | |
