Encouragement and flammability of sponge, signs in PE
, would you be able to look into the encouragement and flammability values of sponge and signs, in PE, for their entries in the Burning Blocks table? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 20:14, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't believe pocket edition has values for either, I believe it uses the block thickness variable to factor how long it takes for a block to burn or if the block can catch fire from lava; I can look into this further in the next day or two to figure out exactly how that works. The other part is that groups of blocks have special material types, and the block material is what determines if it's flammable or not. Sponges are in a material group that isn't flammable, so I'm curious why they're listed as a burning block. Jocopa3 (talk) 07:09, 7 December 2016 (UTC)


 * For comparison, in computer edition, flammability isn't a property encapsulated by the other blocks, it's just a list maintained in BlockFire ... if you are able to look at BlockFire in Mod Code Pack, you'll see a big list of block flammabilities/encouragements right at the top of the class, which the fire block uses to know what blocks it can spread onto. That's where I've been getting those values from.
 * As for sponge, I'm not sure where that came from. It doesn't seem to burn away in Win 10 0.16.2, though, so it's either old, or never was right. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 13:25, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
