Those trees were in my way, so i made a flamethrower to clear them.

I had hoped that the trees would started burning, slowly taking damage and spreading it to other trees.
They only got damaged while i was shooting at them...

I would like it if you could completely burn forests with flamethrowers.
If that is too OP then maybe make the fire do like 20 damage then stop.

Maybe some new items to extinguish the fire, like filling iron buckets with water just like oil and empty barrels in a assembling machine.

Some people just want to watch the world burn...

*ahem* Yeah, this would be neat, but remember the lesson of Dwarf Fortress and fire: unless there's a go-to way to deal with fire, and the code for units to use it (burning biters should seek the nearest extinguishment doodad above all else), it is ludicrously deadly.

It would just make it easier to remove forests









And watch everything burn
