Today the fireplace I built in the evac shelter has for reasons unknown to me, stopped working. I drop wood on the fireplace tile, move off, and activate a lighter or match on the tile, like I’ve done a hundred times already, and get the you lit a fire message, but the red 4 doesn’t appear, and I can then immediately step onto the tile without the warning of stepping into fire, and I can simply pick up the wood again, and none of it is consumed. I can still light the wood on fire on the ground outside. I’ve been using this fireplace fine for several days without any issues.

I’m using the 0.6 stable release.
