== Overview ==
The [[Thermal Buffer]] stores heat, and transfers that heat to buildings which consume it.

Building such as the [[Pyro Dispenser]], the [[Burner Belt]] and the [[Smelter]] consume heat to operate.

== Mechanics ==
[[Thermal Buffer]]s will absorb heat energy from both [[Fire]] and [[Lava]].

When in direct contact with [[Lava]], a large amount of heat is transferred to the buffer, and the [[Lava]] is consumed.

Indirect heating through [[Fire]] transfers significantly less heat, but does not consume the source of that fire.

== Tips ==
[[Fire]] can come from the [[Flamethrower]] and the [[Pyro Dispenser]]. It also rises as occasional sparks from pools of [[Lava]], and is given off whenever burnable items (such as [[Residue]] or [[Vine]]s) are burned.
