Food Spoiling if it's not in a Box

Game mode: [Online | Singleplayer]
Problem: Bug
Region: [NA]


[Hey everyone… I’ve never seen this before but recently when I cook food and it’s taking a while, I leave to do other things and when I come back in 10-20min there is a bunch of putrid meat in my cooking station… Like I put it in a compost heap.
Is this a new bug? Or has it always been this way?]


Steps on how to reproduce issue:
1.Place food in campfire/stove
2.Walk away 200 feet
3.Stay away for 1 minute
4.Return to see the expire time has drastically decreased

Seems to be spoiling very fast. Are you on a official server. If on private server settings could be off.

I was gonna say same thing, however ive not experienced this myself, very strange

I first noticed it on a private pve-c server with spoil rate on 0.1 so food has a massive expiration timer like 20 hours, but food in the fire would just spoil like in a compost if you left it.

But even on my server where the setting s are pretty sweet without being super easy, it does the same thing with a 0.5 spoil rate

I have a private server spoil rate low raw meat in my inventory seems to Last longer than cooked plain foods. I will have to investigate. Ty.
