	: I don't think there's any lava in Gehennom on no-teleport levels. Even if there were, though, I think that there is indeed no way to escape in that scenario. (On a teleport level you could at least hope for a random quantum mechanic to show up and hit you.) But it seems like such a narrow edge case that it will probably never happen to most players, especially since wands of digging are so plentiful there. --[[User:Phol ende wodan\|Phol ende wodan]] ([[User talk:Phol ende wodan\|talk]]) 18:02, 16 November 2016 (UTC)		: I don't think there's any lava in Gehennom on no-teleport levels.

		+	I have found a lava bug
		+
		+	I threw a rock troll corpse into lava. The game said it burned. Several turns later the troll rose up in the lava and then "burned to a crisp" the next round.
		+
		+	Afterwards I did try a experiment. I threw a troll corpse into lave. I fired a wand of cold at the lava. I then dug a pit. The pit had a troll corpse in it. Obviously the corpse should have already burned. 07:06, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

I don't know how to do it but I know that the first step is to start sinking in lava and then you play with your items (I don't know which ones and how) and the result is the turn counter permanently stops. This is not as useful as it sounds since it can break the game and possibly segmentation fault. Also I have forgotten where I got this info. So sorry for being vague. -- Shikaku
