Hey support,

I´m sure you have bigger bugs to focus on, but I have an annoying one and nobody else seems to have it.

I can´t cook anything in the stove and improved stove anymore. The item appears in the queue, but the loading bar dont´t want to start running.

I´ve tried everything. Different types of fuels and recipies, with or without thrall, replaced the stove (and improved stove) and finally built new ones. Nothing helps. Have I missed something?

Btw. the campfire and all other workstations working fine.


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Sorry, I have no clue how to reproduce this bug.
  2. Stove and improved stove don´t work.
  3. Every item I want to cook appears in the queue, but it don´t want to produce it.
  4. No time display for the item and no loading bar animation. The loading bar stays empty, no progress.

Stoves need to be activated manually, did you click on the “play” button in the right upper corner?
I sometimes forget that as well and come back after a few minutes just to see that nothing has cooked yet.
