'''Magma''' appears when a [[blockhead]] reaches the [[Center Of The World|center of the world]].
'''Magma''' appears when a [[Blockhead]] reaches the [[Center Of The World|center of the world]]. It glows slightly with a reddish tint, which allows some [[:Category:Ore|ores]] to become faintly visible before a Blockhead places other [[light]] sources.


A Blockhead will begin to [[smoke]] as it nears magma. This is to warn a Blockhead that it will be [[Health Bar|injured]] if it gets too close (approximately 25 blocks). Despite this, Blockheads can walk on magma.
==Appearance==
It glows slightly with a reddish tint, which allows some [[ore]]s to become faintly visible before a blockhead places other [[light]] sources.
 
==Behavior==
A blockhead will begin to [[smoke]] as it nears magma. This is to warn a blockhead that it will be [[Health Bar|injured]] if it gets too close (approximately 25 blocks). If a blockhead's health gets too low, a blockhead may die. [[Armor#Ice Armor|Ice armor]] and [[Ice Torch|ice torches]] can also cool a blockhead down. Despite this, blockheads can walk on magma.


Magma does not lay at a single, consistent level, but may rise or fall from left to right, often in association with the presence of [[mountain]]s and [[ocean]]s above. It cannot be harvested.

[[Water]] can be poured on magma in order to turn the water into [[basalt]]. If not enough water is placed, it will become steam and disappear.
[[Water]] can be poured on magma in order to turn the water into [[basalt]]. If not enough water is placed, it will become steam and disappear. Starting in [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]], an item dropped on magma will immediately disappear.
 
Magma will instantly melt [[ice]] placed on top of it.


==Notes==
[[Gold Nugget|Gold nuggets]] are typically found within 200 blocks of magma.

A glitch in previous versions of The Blockheads allowed players to place [[trapdoor]]s and [[Wooden Door|doors]] on magma in such a way that the doors took on the appearance and properties of magma. This was patched by preventing them from using magma as a source block.
==Trivia==
In real life, {{wp|Magma|magma}} is a mixture of molten and semi-molten rock found beneath the surface of the Earth. When it emerges to the surface, it is referred to as {{wp|Lava|lava}}.
