Holy shit. Magma now kills zombies. Can someone test this in a fort? Maybe with husks, too?

EDIT: Fire works too. This is huge, guys.

This also now makes demons capable of winning a fight with husks.

Well, they already could thanks to pulping. But now this means I can't fulfill my dream of being a husk and jumping into a volcano and climbing back out.  :'(

How fitting that you would be the one to make this finding.

Does this also apply in adventure mode? (That would actually make zombies somewhat killable)

How would you apply magma in adventure mode? Also, I find zombies perfectly killable in adventure mode. I admit that to be able to fend off a big scale zombie wave it's better to be a vampire (or similar) than a mortal, but that's mainly due to exertion. A single GCS is far more formidable than a squad of zombies to me.

There is literally no difference between adventure and fort mode accept for syndrome timings.

And that's just due to first-person time and stuff.

I was talking about fire, not magma. And zombies are indestructible juggernauts with layers and layers of muscle, killing them without being one yourself, is very difficult, almost impossible. Every advantage helps.

Makes sense, considering fire is the infliction of loads of small cuts.  That's where the bleeding comes from.

The fact that they "died in the heat" means that they died of heat damage, not cuts (and yes, heat damage is a thing).

Projectiles move from launcher to target instantly in adventurer mode, while they move at one tile per tick in fort mode. But yeah, not much difference besides that.

Yeah, though you could die in the heat in previous versions too.

Not zombies. I once jumped into a volcano as a husk and lived.

Yep. Go chuck a goblin into magma and look at its description a little before death.

It seems that when there is too many megabeasts compared to the area of the world, rather than live all separately, the megabeasts hunt in packs. 
For example:

As it turns out, pulling every lever in the fortress wasn't as good of an idea as it sounded like at the time.
