I observed this as well with a miner being chased by a fire man - despite being hit with dozens of bursts of flame, he never took any damage. However, once my steel-clad legendary axedwarf killed it, all of his fat melted off and he bled to death, so maybe it's another temperature transfer issue. |

Fire men burst into flames when they take damage - and this fire seems to work quite well. It's just the fire balls that are noneffective. |

Ah, that's part of what's happening to me when trying to port Spirits of Fire forward from 0.28.181.40d - their fire attacks are useless.
The other half is that the FLAME template seems to have some issues keeping itself coherent, and hand-to-hand attacks don't work very well, although it's a little difficult to tell without extensive testing as burning damage isn't reported in combat logs at all...
The good news is stepping into a running stream causes it to dry up as expected. |

This is basically resolved in the newest versions. |
