Overview
The Flamethrower will shoot out a stream of Fire in the direction of the cursor when used. This can be used to cause certain pixels to catch fire themselves such as Residue or Moss, or be used to melt/boil others such as Ice or Water.
Mechanics
While the Flamethrower cannot be used to excavate pixels, it is a vital part of your factory in the early game. Until you can get Lava, the Flamethrower is the only way to turn Residue to Burnt Residue and is the easiest way to turn Snow into Steam to get renewable Water. It can also convert Cinder into Lava so caution is advised.
The Flamethrower has a default range of around 10 tiles, but this can be upgraded with Fluxite.
