    I have just watched ZaphdXs vide on a 2v2 semifinal on a lava planet and I found it quite disturbing that lava is considered solid and safe to walk and build on. Are there any plans to change this?

    Ideally see lava planets as only buildable where there is no lava and walking over lava should damage units and slow them down. Also metal spots that would spawn on lava should get their location re rolled until they don't spawn on lava as I have always imagined laval planets to be these hostile, recently formed environments with extreme amount of resources on very few patches where there is no lava, that prohibit any naval warfare and severely limit ground warfare.

    completely alpha, absolutely not final state. tanks won't be able to go on lava, and also maybe there will be a small set of hover units that can.

    Yeah! I've been watching my man Brandon working on lava planets all week. We'll get the unit movement over lava handled.
