Fire is a block that cannot be crafted by the player. It is created when lava comes within a 3 block distance of a flammable block. Fire turns nearby flammable blocks into fire. Air which is both nearby fire and a flammable block will randomly turn into fire. See Category:Flammable for a list of flammable blocks. Notably, Chests and locked chests will not burn.

The player can put out fire by punching it. A few blocks have the capabilty to prevent and extinguish fire next to them, among them are Water, River Water, Snow, Snow Block and Ice. When there is no flammable block nearby, fire turns into air eventually.

Fire deals Heart.pngHeart.png damage every second.

Configuration

The following minetest.conf variable is available for fire:
