I need fireproof trees...

Gwill:
I'm pretty sure lightning does strike the rod, and I think it's inflamable.
Not sure if there's anything more to it than that.

jrd:
Yeah, but all items are susceptible to lightning strikes and are flammable. I don't have any reason to believe the TS2 lightning rods attract lightning any more than other objects do.

dizzy:
Unless the code has changed (and I don't think it has), lightning can be mitigated by up to 5 rods. I forget what the exact percentages are, but it's something like 55 to 70% likelihood of hitting the rod instead of something else.

"inflammable" means the same thing  as "flammable."  It does appear to be fireproof, though.

jrd:
Oh, so they do have a purpose? Thanks dizzy.
