Altering the distance/spread of forest fires?

I am looking to make forest fires spread further in less dense forests. Is it possible? What parameters do i change?

I have a lot of not-so-dense forests that i want to burn down but the fires just dies out after burning 2-4 trees at a time.
And yes, i want to burn them down. I don't want to drone them, blow them up or flatten them. I have a flamethrower, that's what i want to use without spending hundreds of cans of flamethrower ammo.

You can set in in the control.lua

Thank you, that's one way for sure but i wanted something less scripting and more define.
Tree fires do spread a set distance, i just want to know how to increase that distance.

There are area values in "fire.lua" but i don't know how it all ties together. I.E, what to change to just affect the spread of forest fires without unintended side effects.
