Talk:Thunderstorm

Things I wonder that will happen from lightningh strikes: Will it power redstone dust? Will lightning be attracted to iron blocks? (the cubes made with 9 peices of iron ingots) Are there any other effects from lightning strikes hitting other creatures IE: Will lightning hitting a zombie pigmen cause a special item to drop?

I Don't Think it does any of those things but I sure hope Notch adds something like lightning rods that attract lightning. User:Skeptical Melon


 * Lightning hitting a creeper makes it become charged and more powerful, pigs that get hit by lightning get morphed into standard zombie pigmen, deals 2.5 damage if hit by lightning. --R ocĸetor talk  21:21, 5 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Correct. Lightning has no affect on any other animals but creepers and pigs, aside from hurting them and lighting them on fire of course. – ultradude25 ( T at 05:15, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Fire
So you take damage from the fire, but it doesn't create real fire? Does it set you on fire? Have you seen it strike netherrack, as it's likely the rain puts out the fire? Darkid 10:13, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Is there a distinguishing factor that makes lightning strike in a certain place, if so it should be added to this wiki page.

Conductor
Could someone kindly upload a picture for me? I want to make a point of conductors, but cannot upload images yet. 

I'm not sure if thats an actual conductor since the pic was taken from such a far distance... it would be great if people tested it thoroughly then made a how-to, put up info, etc. Vanstrat 19:32, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
