Flame Trap

The Flame Trap is a mechanism found naturally in the Jungle Temple. When activated, it fires a jet of fire, which has a range of 20 (47 ) blocks (slightly less than the Flamethrower), and can pierce an infinite number of enemies. It has a cooldown of 3 seconds between firings ( 3.33 or 3 1/3 seconds).

Although naturally-generated Flame Traps are always found in the horizontal orientation, players can rotate them 90° using a hammer.
