I placed a Firewood Storage Spot next to my Crafting Spot, which is directly adjecent to my fire. While crafting my character doesn’t refill the firewood and the fire keeps going out. Did I do something wrong? I’m using the latest experimental #9488 on android. Does anyone know what could be the problem here?

Thank you in advance!

I think you are confusing the firewood storage spot (zones) with the Firewood source (construction). Go to the construction menu with \* and construct a firewood source on the tile that has firewood.

Also, if you’ve marked firewood source, it will not refill if you’re standing on the same tile as the firewood source.

Ah yes, I was talking about the firewood source construction. Its placed next to my character and fire, but every time I read or craft the fire dies after lighting it.

Edit: I tested it with reading and crafting. One instance with putting firewood in the brazier first then lighting it and one more where I light the fire by examining the brazier without any wood inside, which I assume pulls from the firewood source to light a fire. However, the problem remains: After lighting a fire my character does not pull firewood from the source to keep it going. Updating to another exerimental and going through the whole shabang didnt work either.
