Fire


 * For the rune used to cast magic spells, see fire rune.

A fire is simply a small pile of burning logs lit on fire using the Firemaking skill. To make a fire, players need logs, which can be obtained through the Woodcutting skill, by cutting trees. The logs can then be lit on fire using a tinderbox. Tinderboxes are usually sold in general stores for 1 coin. The logs may also be lit by a bow in members worlds after complete Barbarian training.

Lighting
To light logs, players just need to use a tinderbox with logs, which can be in their inventory or lying on the ground. However, in RuneScape Classic a player could only light the logs whilst on the ground. Another way is to right-click the logs and select the 'light logs' option. If the player uses a Gnomish firelighter with the logs before lighting it, they can make coloured flames, which will be the same colour as the firelighter used.

A log can also be lit by any bow after finishing the firemaking section of Barbarian Training.

After lighting a fire, players automatically walk one step to the west. If the way is blocked, they will instead take one step east. If both ways are blocked, players will go south. If all three other ways are blocked, players will step to the north. A fire cannot be lit everywhere; you will not be able to make a fire inside most buildings, on top of another fire, or when standing on objects such as ferns or flowers.

If you light one fire and have a clear path to the west for more fires, you can immediately light the next fire by using a tinderbox with the logs just after you have finished lighting the first log. This way the fire will start burning before the player even attempts to light it. This is a much faster way to burn logs that burning each one separately. This method of buraj;ldfl;ks
