Lava World walk through
Mostly the world is normal play and if you played bug ice world its like that BUT much easer as the crystal is 5 k per deposit .
what is important is the lava and gold .
This is how to get the gold which is usually stuck were you cant mine it .
so start making paste asp then place the paste path in any open squares that are near a gold deposit ( it does not matter if they get built or not .
BUT if you place them then MOVE out of view the bugs will teleport INTO most ares and build and once there are enough open spots as the lava cools build your gold mound next to it and mine it out .
Again it does not matter if the gold bugs get stuck after they are done as again most times they will teleport OUT .
If any bug refuses to teleport out just destroy it after your done mining or building .
Finly surround the lave in places with path and as it cools you can reclame the land and get the new stuff .
finly in Large open ares inside the lava FLY the queen OVER the lave place the mound build a few bugs to mine the new stuff mine and repack queen and move her back out .
To avoid destruction KEEP your Main area alest 40 tiles away from lava ( when The wavey looking lava explodes it does not go more then that far .

More Gold is very limited and taxes well unless you use gifts ( which I am not you will come up short .
some reason with 400 bugs my taxes are 2.3 k
and gold being so limited you can only build 3 or 4 gold mints two admundiant plants and save the rest for one or two civ mounds .
The map is mainly just lots of wating ( though past comes in very fast even with only 30 paste plants .
and ore is easy forget mining deposits as the crystal spreads and even two mounds and 3 crystal mounds near deposits will grow faster tehn you can mine them so just use the placed 600 ore mines

This is good advice, thanks. Also, I haven't played the game, so I'm not sure, but it sounds like you could push the lava completely off the map if you spread your paths out when the lava dries, as the lava has to spread from other lava, so if you push the lava out to the edges, you could eventually eradicate it from the map. However, you wouldn't get any more obsidian.
So here's what I would do:
Build paste production asap
surround every corner and edge of each lake with paste, or just start by spreading out from your main.
You will want to have a xl/mega map for this, but reserve the bottom corner of the map for your main. Put the most important stuff further into the corner, which means you should reserve a lot of space near the point of the corner for important stuff and then build paste tanks outside of that area. This way, when you finally get to annex land, you will be extending the space that your main is next to, allowing you to build more toward the corner of the new land instead of outward toward the lava.
push the lava to the top corner, which is the furthest point away from your main. Do this by claiming land with paths when the lava recedes, and then do it again when the lava recedes even further back. Do this until you have a 25x25 square to reserve for lava. If you have a pretty large map your main should be out of danger at all times as long as you isolate the eruption lobs until the cool, as they can cause lava to spread back over the barriers and toward the main.
Make sure that you make as much paste as possible for this. We will want to make a paste path grid after a while so that there isn't any wide open area left for the lava to spread in. That should slow any spread and allow you time to surround little areas of lava until they cool. It should also provide channels for easy access to obsidian since there would be so much paste path in the game and your rovers would have access to more surface area to mine. Make sure to keep that 25x25 area of lava and let it erupt and spread just a little so you can get so obsidian into the grid squares, but like cobya said, we want to keep the lava at least 40 tiles away, so don't let it spread too far out of the top corner.

nope wile i did cover a map in paste paths and even had every lava pool going a eruption came and destroyed the town lol
But i am enjoying fighting teh volcano and lava
But i am enjoying fighting teh volcano and lava
so, if even every pool of lava is off of the map and no lava remains, an eruption can still come?
yep looks that way ( heck I figered it was But I am a person who never assumes I know and have to try .
Well, at least with the lava gone you're a bit safer. I'm sure that one day soon bast will add a feature where the eruptions will stop once you get under a certain amount of atmosphere. I mean, it would only make sense, right?
