Lava mechanics that costed me 100.000c to learn

So basically I was working in my farm and wanted to do some remodelling. I broke a block that was holding lava, lava went down over some shelves, shelves disappeared, lost over 100.000c in Combustion particle/kernel and fertiliser.

Let this be a warning for anybody, don’t have any storage around lava.

Please tell me that this is actually a bug and a dev can help me get my things back :slight_smile:

Takeaway:

Even if shelves float on lava, lava destroys them if placed.

It’s intended that lava destroy wooden placed blocks.

Im sorry for you that you lost those mats but its no bug.

You are also not the first person this happened to during a remodel.

When we got liquid in the farming update we where warned wood type blocks (storage included) and ice blocks when placed next to (claimed) lava would burn away.

look at the bright side, it only burns stuff underneath and doesn’t spread like Minecraft fire… or real fire

I don’t mind that, it’s just I wasn’t aware of this ,before just now. I dropped stuff in lava before (even wood stuff), and it floated, so I presumed it will not burn it, and didn’t ever think to check.

Yup same here. The other day I died when I tried to place lava in a half chiseled block (steps shape) on my roof, and missed the placement. Swung my titanium hammer instead of my liquid breaker hammer at it. Died. I got a good laugh out of it though.
