Stopping a burning kiln/etc.

Post by Kionys »

As most people know, it's very annoying to have to wait for your kiln/cauldron/etc to stop burning(even with the cauldron lift glitch, you still lose branches/etc). I was thinking that if we had a certain amount of water, I.E. 20L of water, we could put out a certain item. Perhaps 20L of water to put out a burning cauldron, 100L of water to put out a burning kiln, etc etc.

Instead of commenting about it, why don't you flag it or somethin if you got a problem?

Why would you want to put out a kiln? If someone was using high quality wood to burn, I'd imagine you'd want to have it burn w/o any interruption. Burning fires also kinda look nice at night..

It's simple, don't fill a kiln/oven with wood. Research, check the wiki, do a lil Math. (Oh the gods! Math in a videogame?! Welcome to HnH)

Too much work, not much point.

I kinda worded that wrong. I meant something more along the lines of losing charcoal or some stuff, which can be a bitch to get when your in a rush. Instead of losing it you could put it out and save it for later.

:shock: I agree. Then you could max the fire meter and not have gather wood for quite some time.

If you're looking to save materials, use the oven/kiln bug and wait for the proper time and then use a single piece of fuel. Nothing is simpler than that. Besides, if you're thinking of the trick to stop a cauldron from boiling, you lose the fuel when doing that.
