Fires are ridiculous?

[ProfessorButts]

My whole town just burnt down, in the middle of winter, including foragers huts, hunting camps and windmills that are miles away from everything? How do you combat that? I just had to watch everything burn down and rebuild it all?

[madpraxis]

Sounds about right.

Though if things are burning down that aren't near anything else, while everything else is burning...

Were the mysterious fires everywhere after a band of screaming idjiots ran through town stealing everything they could while waving torches around?

If not, then...uh... That can't really happen. Even a minor gap between buildings helps a lot with the spread of fire. Just like real life.

There was only one screaming idiot and he was sitting behind a computer monitor.

Ok, I liked that one, heh.

Honestly? Everything, everywhere, should not be on fire all at once. Especially if they aren't 'next' to something.
Presuming you had wells, plural since having them scattered around helps with fire A LOT, then I have no idea in the slightest what happened.

Everything. Including my ox's and my buildings aren't rebuilding because they need an ox to move the log, I can't buy another ox because I tried to relocate my hitching post and there's no ox to move the log, so I think I'm bricked? I can't rebuild anything.

It's happened to me twice where fire has gone through and building on the other side of the region have gone up too, but last time was no where near as catastrophic.

If you have a save right before this happens, drop a comment with a link to it uploaded somewhere, in the bug board describing the situation.
Or even better, hit up Discord.

Cause...that is just wrong, man. I feel the pain too.

You need to build "wells" near them. I have about 10 wells placed around the map close to all buildings. Zero fire issue.

Just delete the fire haha, why didn't I think of that.

[madpraxis]

That is... brilliance, actually.

'Everything keeps catching fire'
Obvious solution, delete the fire.

Just dive into the code and play with the code instead of the game. Who needs immersion these days anyway.

[redhongkong]

water well everywhere

but the fire animation is bugged, sometime u will need to reload for the buggy animation to go away.

[Koi no Yokan]

Yeah sounds like a bug, maybe invisible raiders? Because fire spread, even on challenging, has rarely happened for me. I never see more than 3 on fire and I don't even build that many wells.

Well its more or less 1 day which passes every 27-30 seconds, i dont like this system this way you lose far more than just a village in a fire you cant really have mercenaries either since you have to pay them every 10 minutes which can be quite painful.

[OKOK]

OMG fire in this game is crazy. Suddenly whole village on fire. Totally not related to where it start.

[Tetukas]

Well you can delete the bulding on fire or do as I do first thing get wells all around the camp ;)
