Fire is quite deadly in DST, but its a morsel of the meat of Solo Don't Starve with how one single fire causes a whole forest burning for... About 5 seconds (guess who learned that the hard way)
If you plant a stack of pinecones around moonstone altar and light the tree that's closest to the altar as soon as full moon starts, fire on it's own can defend the entire event most of the times. So far I never got unpleasant results.
So bigger thing = bigger fire = bigger radius and damage. Somehow, I never had thought of that. Very informative video. It goes to show how much experimentation is still left to be done in this wonderful game.
700 hours into the game and i realized just now (thanks to this video) that there are different strenghts of fire in DST ..i'm impressed. tysm this video must've taken a lot of time and calculating to make, it's definitely worth it ! :)
I wish magic was viable as a primary weapon, doesnt have to be better than darksword-adjacent melee or even equal, just....good? before anyone says shadow and lunar weapons are magic crafting you know thats not what i meant
Fire is a good way to kill other unsuspecting players. I once was in a server and 2 players cooked a mandrake which put me to sleep then the other pushed me into small flammables. I left before I died though.
You can also use fire if you don't want to spend time in combat but also need a resource near that enemy. For example, you can set a tallbird on fire in the early game while collecting gold so you don't have to waste tons of time fighting it with just an axe
Does random smoldering during Summer work in a similar fashion or is it simply random chance regardless of their heat capacity that smoldering can occur? I am aware that lureplants have priority for whatever reason, but I'm curious if low heat capacity objects are more likely to be targeted by Summer smoldering than large heat capacity objects.
I am not sure if it affects what is chosen for smoldering I just know the chosen object will have the same smolder time as what was shown here Like small objects ignite faster
Some one did show me his while I was working on mine I really liked how he showed off the damage ranges So I used that to similarly show off the smolder radius for all the fires!
underrated video for the amount of information and statistics it provides. i've heard that a night light (that seemingly useless nightmare light) that starts smouldering provides "fuel" to the light once it catches fire. Any idea how you might accomplish infinite light by continously causing a night light to smoulder?
Awesome video! Does it matter if items like fences are placed on the ground as a structure or sitting there stacked as an item? Is the burn timer/dps gonna be the same?
Can you remake this video taking into account willow's unique fire abilities now? when the beta is out that is, it'd be nice to know if the controlled flames have interesting properties.
The flames don't actually change much. Only things they change are damage numbers and duration of entity burning. Small entity burning lasts for 18 seconds medium lasts 24 seconds and large lasts for 30 seconds Her fire also boosts the damage cap from 120 to 180 a second. I wonder if she does not have the controlled burn and fire spreads if her spread is more That is something I can check potentially that may change the video. but otherwise most damage numbers here are the same just multiply by 1.5
Well that's more about temperature which is based on ambient world temp rather than fire But I guess the large propagators can cause you to overheat in winter.

Willow mains behave

Its as a wise slasher342 once said
Willow mains put ur clothes back on

oh wow, I had totally forgotten about how volatile fire spread was in DS. it is as if everything was drenched in gasoline!
700 hours into the game and i realized just now (thanks to this video) that there are different strenghts of fire in DST ..i'm impressed. tysm this video must've taken a lot of time and calculating to make, it's definitely worth it ! :)
Willow mains watching this: *intresting*
This is straight up fire 🔥🔥🔥
Wow, that was incredibly detailed, I had no idea that DS fire was that mechanically deep. Thanks for the content!
Also I love your avatar, its awesome
I love the old fire.
I dont
Duality of a man
my favrit thing about campfires was that i assumed it would be safe to make on a boat, and thats my dumbest moment
I wish magic was viable as a primary weapon, doesnt have to be better than darksword-adjacent melee or even equal, just....good? before anyone says shadow and lunar weapons are magic crafting you know thats not what i meant
the new staff that got added is good

I had the unfortunate experience of dealing with a bearger on fire during pubs. Never again

Great video. I did notice charcoals have a bigger fire damage radius.

I just know the chosen object will have the same smolder time as what was shown here
Like small objects ignite faster
Quality content ❤️ Well done!
I miss instant fire spreading, this was making fire a REAL problem.
nice a reason to play willow, cant wait lol
I remember jakey did a little bit on this same thing and its how ‘The OVEN’ is powered
Some one did show me his while I was working on mine I really liked how he showed off the damage ranges
So I used that to similarly show off the smolder radius for all the fires!
can't wait to see the video on Willow
Good work mate!
willow supremacy forever
Most common fire hazard for me? tamed Beefalo pooping on the campfire
I do kind of like that sometimes because its free fuel to the fire i place.
please make a video on the animation cancel

Ive tried to do it in DST However it doesn't seem to be a thing. Maybe it was a thing in single player dont starve But no longer exists unfortunately.
Awesome
Think the range of damage is just cause of distance. Great video though!
Awesome video! Does it matter if items like fences are placed on the ground as a structure or sitting there stacked as an item? Is the burn timer/dps gonna be the same?
Yes for those the structure needs to be placed.
The inventory item is considered a small prefab.
where does the scorching sun fish fit in this? it also generates heat.
Mm true I did forget about it. It may be the same as the lavae but I can look at the code for it

My question is, for the mobs you mentioned that fire would be helpful to kill them - will any of their drops burn?
If they die while still on fire yes.
But the items won't burn if you put a rope underneath them and have them walk onto it causing panic that way.
Wats the benefit of setting fire to beefalo and tallbirds if their drops burn
@@devilvocano420 well tall bird you get a cooked meat. But you can also kill them faster potentially.
could you credit me for the willow gif you used? Would appreciate it
Yeah I can do that

I wonder if she does not have the controlled burn and fire spreads if her spread is more
That is something I can check potentially that may change the video.
but otherwise most damage numbers here are the same just multiply by 1.5
What about overheating caused by fire?
what about it? this question seems really vague.
Well that's more about temperature which is based on ambient world temp rather than fire
But I guess the large propagators can cause you to overheat in winter.
Just to be clear - wickerbottoms fire pen is an exact copy of fire staff?
Is it idk never really tried them
👍
Fire damage in DS = alternative to blowdart. In DS, fire darts always deals 105 damage.
Fire damage in DST = need for pvp and easy multiplayer lol
stolen idea from me stop being bread7777
I am the first 🗿
