The wiki needs a general guide to using [[magma]], or laying out magma workshops. | The wiki needs a general guide to using [[magma]], or laying out magma workshops. | ||
* A big question I had was how to make the final connection to allow magma to flow. I went with my original plan to channel from above, at the shore of a magma reservoir, to open the edge and let it flow down the long "hallway" I'd made. Wiki explains that channeling now creates a ramp (it didn't used to), and the only ways to remove the ramp both involve getting down into that channel afterwards. Obviously I don't want to do that since the magma is going to be there. Will the ramp interfere with the flow? | * A big question I had was how to make the final connection to allow magma to flow.

− | ** No. I left the ramp, the magma flowed just fine. I then covered the open channel (including its ramp) with a constructed floor. I have just succeeded in erecting my first. | + | ** No. I left the ramp, the magma flowed just fine. I then covered the open channel (including its ramp) with a constructed floor.

* Another question was the positioning of the forges and workshops. Only the [[Magma Forge]] page indicates that one should locate the forge with "one of the impassable squares" over the hole to the magma below, but nowhere did I find specific instruction about which squares they are. The "picture"s on the right side of these buildings were helpful, but without a key, I was just guessing. | * Another question was the positioning of the forges and workshops.

** The "impassable" squares of a magma forge are the "east" and "west" sides. Because the [[Magma Smelter]]'s has the hole on the "north" side, that means the two kinds buildings can't be aligned along a magma channel -- one set of buildings are necessarily offset from the others. | ** The "impassable" squares of a magma forge are the "east" and "west" sides.
