'''Magma-safe materials''' are materials which will not melt, burn, evaporate, or otherwise take damage when in close contact with [[magma]]. Most frequently, this comes into play when using [[floodgate]]s operated by [[mechanism]]s. | '''Magma-safe materials''' are materials which will not melt, burn, evaporate, or otherwise take damage when in close contact with [[magma]].

Furthermore, only [[bar]]s, [[block]]s, [[stone]], [[log]]s, and [[anvil]]s can be recognized as magma-safe - all other item types are considered unsafe, even if they are made of magma-safe materials. |
In order to construct mechanisms from a magma-safe stone, simply ensure that they are the closest available stone to your [[mechanic]], ideally by placing a restricted [[stockpile]] around your [[mechanic's workshop]]. [[Burrow]]s can also be of assistance here, as dwarves will not attempt to pick up stone out side of their burrow assignments. However, if you have an active metalworking industry and have access to [[iron]] or [[steel]], constructing [[metal]] mechanisms is much more straightforward. | In order to construct mechanisms from a magma-safe stone, simply ensure that they are the closest available stone to your [[mechanic]], ideally by placing a restricted [[stockpile]] around your [[mechanic's workshop]].
