Here are the new blocks:
- Fire Sounders - Will detect a fire and emit a digiline signal. Will also make an annoying noise.
- Fire Boxes - Basically a button to say "argh fire!". Right-clicking reveals a log of who pressed it (in my school, they'd use CCTV to detect offenders, but CCTV isn't really a thing in Minetest
- Extinguisher - Will, given a fire message, send fire repellent everywhere. There are various extinguisher classes which only work on specific materials; wrong combinations might kill (there is detection filtering but manual holding could cause danger):
- Class A - For any ordinary solid, like paper or wood; Water or foam used
- Class B - For hot liquids and cooking fires; Needs CO2, foam, or dry power
- Class C - For flammable gases like methane; needs dry powder
- Class D - Dangerous metal fires; Needs dry powder
- Class E - Technic-based fires; Needs CO2 or foam
- Admin panel - Allows for testing or fire alarms in the network. Zoning is possible using channels for each zone
- Heat detector - Will detect anything hot or with an open flame and send the fire message
- Sign-lights -
Let me make an interaction table:
Extinguisher | Comes from | A fires (spicy solids) | B fires (spicy liquids) | C fires (spicy gases) | D fires (spicy metal) | E fires (spicy electronics) |
Water mist | Water buckets | Works | EXPLOSION SPREADS FIRE ARGH | 1/10 of the fire goes away and then extinguisher explodes | No effect on fire | No effect on fire and coming within 10 metres will kill you |
CO2 (within 5 metres panicked suffocation occurs) | Elements mod or baking soda, vinegar, and bag | No effect | Works | No effect on fires | No effect on fire | Works |
Foam | Water and fire-safe (blast-resistant in the case of technic) concrete, from clay | Works | Works | Removes fire from the floor | No effect on fire | Works |
Dry powder | Ground-up concrete | No effect on fire | Works | Works | Works | 1/10 of fire goes away then extinguisher explodes |
