[40d] Magma Burning Wooden Pump
I heard conflicting reports that you could or could not pump magma with a pump made of wood. It sounded plausible to me, because I'd thought I'd read about it being done in some community fort, and it made sense with the way that other buildings in the game are ok with magma as long as they're not submerged.
But I wanted to try it for myself, just to be sure.
It turned out that the wooden pump quickly caught fire when used to pump magma, even though it was never submerged.
So much for that theory.
