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, e.g. Water (see Category:Puts out fire for a full list). 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:

  • disable_fire: If true, fire does not spread and can't destroy flammable blocks, but it can still deal damage to players. But the remaining fire will go out quickly eventually. Default: false
