Notch has just implemented lightning. I’m now too terrified to open up my treehouse map in case a storm burns it to the ground! Is this possible?
Update
I’ve unanswered this question, now that fire behaves differently in 1.6.
Answer
I just watched a huge treehouse burn to the ground because of a lightning strike. Rain DOES NOT ALWAYS put out fires. Now all my wool pixel art is in danger as well. Had to revert to a backup.
Caught the last few seconds of the destruction. Mind you, this used to be a huge treehouse that spanned at least 64×64 and up to the ceiling.
