Loading fluids onto minecarts can be difficult. Firstly, because their weight can slow the minecart down greatly. Secondly, because they will not fill if the cart is moving too quickly. Curiously, filling a minecart with magma does not injure a dwarf ''riding'' it. A minecart will hold enough fluid to increase the depth of a single tile by 2. This amount is listed as 833 units, which weigh 459Γ (water) or 999Γ (magma). An iron or steel cart filled with magma weighs 1313Γ, while an adamantine cart filled with magma weighs 1007Γ. |
