Cats Don't Avoid Fire about cataclysm-dda HOT 10 OPEN

A fix to this could be adding the PATH_AVOID_DANGER_1 flag to most creatures (They won't be able to open doors though)

I've seen a regular untamed chicken walk into a fire a while ago, so I assume this is a more general issue.

I can only speak to my own experience, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a larger issue but I also cannot directly confirm that it is.

Can confirm, almost any creature will fearlessly let itself become a beef wellington at the slightest opportunity.

Yeah either PATH_AVOID_DANGER_1 used to include avoidance of fire and there's a regression, or we assumed it includes it for years. Because most animals don't have PATH_AVOID_FIRE. I've been adding it to things I touched as I went along but there's tons still missing it.

my siamese cat was a bit silly and did the aforementioned deed of self immolation.

This works on almost any tamed animal, unless it's a friendly feral (Spawned in through debug menu) AKA Has the PATH_AVOID_DANGER_1 flag

That shouldn't be an issue for most creatures, and I imagine the ones where it would be an issue could get a fire specific flag, right?

This is entirely false. Animals ALL have this flag. Ferals avoid fire due to their path settings field. Check out the solution I mentioned above for how to actually solve it through a flag.
