A problem of using magma volcano

[Major44]

I try to use the heat of the new gold volcano and big volcano. So I build a system like this:

It works well on gold volcano. But when the big volcano become cold, It is like this:

There is a igneous rock that must be digged out. Can you change the magma cooling to a little triangle instead of big rock? This will make it easier for us to use the magma volcano.

If you get a Rock Tile or an dropped item is determined by the amount of magma in that tile, that volkanos output is to high to produce items, you'll always get tiles

That does look annoying.  I'm not sure the block forming is the problem, but the volcano shouldn't stop the eruption.  It should break he block when it erupts like any other pressurized liquid.

Have you considered having the magma flow to a different location before coming in contact with the plate it's supposed to heat.  That way, it couldn't form on the volcano, but instead, somewhere else.  Somewhere that may be more manageable.

Yes, I knew that. I just hope klei team can change it.

It's a solution, but still cannot run automatically.

let the magma run off into a pool of oil. like, directly, and from above.

just before OC someone built a magma-maker and letting the output run from a ledge into the pool created triangle igneous from the magma

They wont change it, since it will mess with the physics of the game in a lag crating way
