Fire rework
Before this update, fire was an all-or-nothing strategy: small amounts of fire were almost useless, and large amounts became impossible to counter. This update makes several changes to the way fire works to improve the balance.
- Now, each fire slowly produces damage to the ship's hull and possibly to the room in which it is located, depending on its power.
- Propagation has also been modified: each fire gradually gains in power. When it reaches a certain power, it spreads the fire to a surrounding tile.
- Conversely, fighting a fire will gradually reduce its power.
