Heat Magnet
Heat Magnet is a Ballpark Modification introduced in the Season β14 Earlsiesta that grants a team 5 Runs when one of their players is incinerated in a Ballpark with Heat Magnet.
Effect
When a player is incinerated in a Ballpark with Heat Magnet installed, the Thermal Converter will repurpose the heat of the incineration into 5 runs for the incinerated player's team. When this occurs, it will note "The Heat Magnet catches. The Thermal Converter hums. 5 runs generated for the [Affected Team]!" during the incineration itself.
The incinerated player's team will receive 5 runs regardless of if they are the away team or fielding.
