My hunger meter has stopped dropping

[martinuzz]

As the title says. 

I think it happened when I was holding a stack of torches in my off-hand slot, and those got extinguished when I entered water.  Not sure that caused it but it does seem that since then my satiety remains at 1480/1500

 

I just updated to 14.2 today

When you eat meals cooked in claypots, there is a hidden bonus where your hunger meter will not drop at all for 30 seconds per 100 points restored.

Have you eaten such a meal recently?

[martinuzz]

I do eat cooked meals, but the last one was a while ago. 

I just used my bed and slept through the night.

During blacks screen sleep time, satiety did drop, but now I am walking around again and it doesn't drop any further.

[martinuzz]

Yeah, something definitly bugged here. I've been running around my base for 10+ minutes now, longer than the longest possible bonus, and still my food meter isn't moving at all.

[martinuzz]

Okay, after wandering around from erly morning till evening without the meter dropping, now it has finally unfrozen.

 

You sure those hidden bonusses are 30s per 100 points satiety? This was more like 5 minutes per 100 satiety if it was that what caused it.

That's the value I found on the wiki. Perhaps it has changed since then. But I've played in 1.14 and I didn't get any unduly long periods of satiation yet.

This really needs to be displayed to the player in some way...

same problem here, sometimes (randomly) after eating any cooked food the hunger meter is stopped for way longer than it's supposed to. for me it also happened with milk and berry juice. i am pretty sure that drinking 150 sat of milk shouldn't give half a day of free food

Happens from time to time. In my experience, it happens mostly when you let the hunger bar go so low you take damage. Keep it above that and it rarely if ever bugs out. Easily avoided unless you are the kind who likes exploits.

There is at least one known issue with hunger getting stuck. It's possible that it occurs in other situations as well though.

Just had this happen from eating 2 flax grains near low hunger. Stayed at 148 saturation for a considerable time despite 150%+ hunger modifier.

I've also had it happen from eating a meat stew just after respawning (i.e., 750 sat.) The effect persisted through 5+ deaths to a double-headed drifter, the end of the temporal storm, and through part of the next day.

The actual annoying part of this bug is that nutrition continues to drop and you can't recover it while your saturation is full. (And dying cuts your nutrition dramatically, so killing yourself just to lose 750 saturation points is a nonstarter.)

Edit: Exiting and re-entering the world in singleplayer seems like it fixes the issue?
