Overview
Lava occurs naturally deep underground in the Lava Cave, but it can be moved around your factory by using the Cinder process.
Lava can be trapped inside Filters and will ignite pixels that pass over it, if possible. This can be extremely useful for automating your factory, for things like Residue and Flower auto-burners.
Mechanics
Lava can be frozen into Scoria by combining it with Snow (such as from the Cryoblaster). This can be destroyed with any weapon which will drop as Cinders. Cinders can be carried around with the Grabber or on Conveyor Belts/Launchers. Igniting the Cinder will turn it back into Lava.
Tips
By setting a Filter to only allow Cinder and placing a solid block below it and then filling it with Cinders and igniting them, you can hold Lava wherever you like. If the Filter is completely full with Lava and Residue is moved over it, the Residue touching the Conveyor Belt will ignite and turn into Burnt Residue.
When Water lands on lava, it evaporates to create Steam.
