    Every time I get a bucket of lava (or magma) and then place it in a large vat I created out of stone it just disappears. There is no wall (e.g. dirt, brick wall, wood wall etc.) behind the vat and there are multiple ares that have large vats filled with lava on the server I play on.  
    I  just can't get it to work.

    Does the same thing happen when you have a wall behind the vat?

    Liquid physics in Terraria are a bit strange. I suggest you watch this:

    @TEHMAXXORZ: Are you talking about the server I'm hosting? Or a different one?
