mutations.ts: weather category, multiplier 43, stackable true — active flame aura from wildfire and heat wave weather. Heat Wave’s published bonuses are Ember, Solar, and Burnt; Flaming is defined on the mutation row for wildfire/heat-wave contexts. Hunt open-flame heat windows without inventing a Wildfire weather id absent from weather.ts.
Flaming Mutation Grow a Garden
Flaming wraps crops in an active flame aura at 43× weather environmental weight — wildfire and heat-wave heat that sits between Ember smolder and Blazing intensity without inheriting Ember’s cold conflict list.
How to trigger
Stacking rules
Flaming is environmental. Solo: envBracket = 1 + (43 − 1) = 43. No CONFLICT_PAIRS entry for Flaming. Ember (25×), Burnt (12×), Blazing (57×), and Solar (22×) can share the env sum. Ember — not Flaming — conflicts with Frozen, Chilled, and Frostbite. Growth remains exclusive.

Flaming value by weight
Flaming applies a 43× multiplier in the weather bracket. The table below shows the value it adds to a reference crop (base 50) across common harvest weights, so you can gauge how much this tag is worth before chasing it.
| Weight | Base crop value | With Flaming (43×) | Value added |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kg | 50 | 2.15K | +2.1K |
| 2 kg | 200 | 8.6K | +8.4K |
| 5 kg | 1.25K | 53.8K | +52.5K |
| 10 kg | 5K | 215K | +21K |
Flaming value impact
Heat ladder without stolen Ember rules
Flaming + Blazing: sum 100, count 2, envBracket = 1 + (100 − 2) = 99. Flaming + Ember + Burnt: sum 80, count 3, envBracket = 78. On a 2 kg base-16,000 Rainbow crop with Flaming alone: weight² = 4; 16,000 × 4 = 64,000; × 50 = 3,200,000; × 43 = 137,600,000 Sheckles before friend boost. Heat triples use additive brackets — never Flaming × Blazing × Ember.
Once Ember is on the crop, Ember’s CONFLICT_PAIRS already forbid Frozen, Chilled, and Frostbite. Flaming by itself does not create those blocks. Price cold-to-heat transitions from the conflict map, not from flame-aura lore.
Summer listings versus Foxfire confusion
Foxfire (41× pet) is a spirit blue flame with a different category and trigger. Both can coexist as environmental tags if both icons land; neither overwrites the other through a conflict pair. Disclose wildfire versus Kitsune provenance in WFL text.
Harvest while flame visuals and heat banners remain in screenshots. Infernal (67×) and Molten (60×) are event heat neighbors with higher multipliers — separate IDs for volcanic calendars, not automatic Flaming upgrades.
Common questions
- Does Flaming conflict with Frozen?
- No Flaming↔Frozen pair exists. Ember conflicts with Frozen. If only Flaming is present, Frozen is not blocked by Flaming’s ID.
- Flaming versus Blazing — exclusive?
- No exclusive heat group lists them. Both can contribute to envBracket when both icons appear (43× and 57×).
