Add a table of which material burns quickest/slowest?--Trippledot 11:14, 11 March 2010 (UTC) Not a bad idea. We'd need to do some testing to figure out the burn rates tho.--Starshell 00:16, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

They seem to be random, ill drop 100 pieced of each kind 3 blocks away and time them one by one to get an average. --Trippledot

If it doesn't have information, then add onto it. --99.231.201.18 23:10, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Crafting with Fire
Apparently, fire can be used to craft chainmail armor. Use INVedit or a similar program to give yourself fire and craft armor as you would normally with any other material. Is this worth noting on the page?

Fall damage and fire
If you fall onto fire, you take no fall damage, just fire damage EDIT, I'm a little confused now, if you would take a small amount of fall damage (around 4 hearts), you would take the fire damage. with the extremes of fall damage, ie nearly killing you, you take the fall damage.

Eternal fire
I've added a section on how to make large blocks of eternal fire, but it is by no means perfect. I invite anyone with slightly pyromaniac tendencies to experiment with this and report your findings! Thanks!

Also, if the method is confusing or doesn't work like I described it, let me know so I can make a visual guide.

The method is based on these rules that eternal fire seems to abide to:


 * A block will burn continuously if the sides are covered with non-flammable blocks
 * A continuously burning block will keep burning when these blocks are mined away
 * A continuously bruning block acts as a non-flammable block

I tried your eternal fire technique, i.e. lighting a piece of wood surrounded by dirt and it burned out. Has anyone else had this result?
