Bonfire goes out at random
Since the latest update (April 2021) the Bonfire will now sometimes just go out at random when it still has fuel. It will usually start itself up again on the next tick.

Smiffe AdminHi Angleet.
How often does this happen? Specific weather?
Specific time of day? -

MikeAlso a photo would be good, if the smoke cannot clear I've seen fires go out after it builds up enough. Not sure bonfires do the same though as I'm not to that level yet but campfires and torches do go out.

BjornThis is an oxygen problem. You need to have proper airflow. Chimney needs to represent the footprint of the fire.

angleetNot that I've noticed. It's definitely happened both day and night, and in sunny weather. I have a bonfire in the center of a circle of portals. There are chests nearby. I think it happens most often when I am interacting with the chests.

Clark RicheySeeing this happen with the 2023-02-01 0.213.4 build. With multiple people on the same world one person will see the bonfire lit, while the other might see it out. Seems to come back on randomly during a short period of time. Happens constantly.

Daeoc DomrenHad this happen with all fire sources. Not sure what causes it, but I've had it happen at various times of day in various biome bases of small to large size.

MaCarBre Admin@Daeoc Domren Fires can be put out by strong winds, water or their respective smoke. It's not a bug.
