Fire Spread: false?

[Cuppa_Cocoa]

I am building a room which has a decorative fireplace at its center. The problem is I can't place fire in my plot without it spreading, since it appears to spread outside of protected regions. Is there a possibility we could do /gamerule doFireTick false? Since griefing isn't allowed I can't see a huge reason to allow fire-spread, otherwise.

I just mentioned this to the Kapten and we'll discuss it soon hopefully. I personally see no issue with doing so but I'd rather see if it's set for a reason first.

Okie doke, that sounds reasonable. I just have two more fires to set and I'm trying to decide if I can do it without burning my tower down in one go. XD

What's keeping you from switching the properties of the plot not to allow fire spread?

Nothing is keeping me from turning off fire spread. What happens is I can't light fires while that is on, so if I want to have a decorative fire, I have to turn on fire spread, light the fire, then turn it off. However, since I have a fire already lit on my property, if I want to light the second two fires, I could set my house on fire as I make the two new ones. I'd rather not have to finagle that every time I want a fire. Doing doFireTick false will allow the setting of fires, without the spread of them.

My thought was that since griefing isn't allowed, the server isn't a factions server, and we can set fire spread to false anyway, that maybe we could just set it for the map and not worry about it. But perhaps I'm missing a use for fire spread?

Ah, that makes more sense to me!
I'll see what I can do!
