This just got fixed in EDuke.

Sorry for the triple post but this is incorrect. That fire sprite does no damage all the way back to dos. I also took that test map through many revisions and the falling fire is glitchy all the way back to dos also, although it appears to be worse now.

I've attached a testcase map.I think these two bugs are related. Falling fire behaves different than fire spawned on the floor.

This behaviour changes between eras of eduke32, but for revisions back to the 4000s fire is glitchy. I have yet to disect it.

Another symptom of the recent clipping changes I suspect. Maybe the z clipdist change r7436

This fixes the fire without touching the offending sprites or geometry.
1)open mapster, e1m1
2)delete the boxes near the fire
3)fire burns again

I have also noticed that I can crouch under some fire and not be damaged. And I think I can get closer too, but that would need proper investigating before I'd swear by it.

Advising that this has been reported upstream by Doom64hunter and has had a little bit of discussion on Discord. Nothing conclusive as to why it's occurring as of yet.

Sorry about that, I had character limitations on the title so I should have elaborated on the first post :)

In E1M1 when you drop down the duct at the start, outside the theatre there's a dumpster that's on fire. Try to get burned by the fire. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/duk ... 1215144556

Also mate, I've gone through the commits. 8000 is the last version where you burn, 8003 is the first where you don't burn.

It's recent. Issue is not in 7747 from June, but is in 8099 from September.

Certainly was nostalgic seeing those demos! ;)

Works fine in RedNukem and works fine in JFDuke3D (compiled it the other day for old times sakes). I know this issue hasn't always occurred in EDuke32. Trying to download an older version to test but their server is pretty slow at the moment...

Also occurs in EDuke32. One for the on-hold queue.
