Numbskull

They display as lit, I also removed the dirt from around them as if that mattered. I dug them up and started them again about 20 minutes ago, all the burn materials popped back out intact. This is on a totally default world, for the record. ALTHOUGH, 40 minutes ago, before i even made the post, my friend [who is hosting the game] also attempted to fire clay bowls. TO WHICH IT WORKED! So at least my food isnt gonna rot. But i think that may be the source of the bug, if any devs are reading.

Wolf bait here, [god that tag is real] Very early into a first playthrough, just me and one friend. HE has managed to fire clay, and the whole time we are both awestruck at its inconsistency. Should we be covering it? That worked, then suddenly stopped working. When it rained once, they seemed to "go out" but not display it, even with the block overhead we still put a full roof on the structure. Should we cover them directly above the block? Do they need to be constructed adjacent or spaced? Its only bowls and watering cans, it has been days now. Ive farmed crops and cooked meals out of them, i cannot even consume them because they will ROT before these things work.
