Molotov cocktails are ranged (non-smeltable) weapons that set a 3x3 plus shaped (+) zone on fire where it lands.
Acquisition
They can be crafted at a machining table for 
25 + 80 and 6,000 ticks (1.67 mins) of work. They are also a common drop from raiders.
Analysis
- Equip a colonist with Molotov's
- Draft the colonist
- Press B to select target area.
Accuracy is poor on moving targets.
A way to defend a base using it is to make coming raids softer after dropping on stone floors/walls so that enemies have a difficult time getting in, without burning the base itself.
Good for disposing of corpses or equipment rapidly, though fireproof flooring and walls are recommended to prevent spread.
