voxframe 31 Posted November 3, 2014 Can anyone confirm the status of cooking (Gas stoves only) in 0.50? Currently cooking with a stove is broken in 0.49 and causes the meat to burn instantly. It works fine with a fireplace, but the camping stove always burns it instantly. (Anyone who says it works for them, I beg of you to actually try it, there are loads of posts of people having problems with it and a couple saying it's working fine, but I doubt they've actually tried it) I've tried just about every combination of this on 0.49 and no matter what, the meat goes from raw to burnt instantly. There isn't even a half second delay between the two, it goes instantly. Hoping this is fixed in 0.50, or at least when it goes over to stable. Cooking on a campfire is fun, but a pain cutting wood when axes are hard to find lately.(I've never seen axes take so much damage when cutting down a tree lol - I think that needs some tweaking) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackberrygoo 1416 Posted November 3, 2014 I will check for you when I go on experimental today in a couple of hours ... I've been wondering this too , and you are right some people don't bother to try it and just assume we're crazy and we don't know about the "short time frame" before it's burnt .. I can't wait for these gas stoves to work properly .. But any ways I'll check today when I get a frying pan / cooking pot . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brumey 116 Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) the game feels like the biggest mess in its current state! i took a break for 4 months what i encountered on the weekend not able to see objects flying when thrown (lots of lag, desync, stuttering, character freezing after throwing object) the patch for pathcing the clothes doesnt work no more (for me atleast) not able to hear my buddies gunshots pistol not showing up in Holster when holstered whn building a fireplace still not able to put 3 Wood at once into fireplace. you gotta take 1 Wood, put it into fireplace and then u can stack the others with Stones upgradable fireplace gone ? fishing bugged (he always said i moved, tough i ´did stand still) where are the Police cars ? mp5k not in the game nomore? still no shotty slug ammo ?!? walkie talkies still not working ? craftable grenades gone ? are M4, mp5k, grenades removed from the game ? what i love: the "new" spawns no tent City in balota the shitty fucked up KOS community that dayz is made of Edited November 3, 2014 by brumey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeaverProductions 441 Posted November 3, 2014 And how many of your "issues" have you reported to the Bug Tracker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voxframe 31 Posted November 3, 2014 Looks like this issue has been sitting in the bug tracker for a while. It's ACKed but doesn't look like it's moving. I would think this would be a very simple fix as it's already working with the fireplace, probably something as stupid as a variable not being passed correctly in the code. Come on guys, these are easy fixes I would think. This one has been sitting for nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alijax 3 Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) i did this last night - was quite annoyed as it took ages & then Raw to Burnt in an instant. was good however that i was able to carry the canister, stove & pot in 3x1 slots Edited November 3, 2014 by alijax1972 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voxframe 31 Posted November 4, 2014 Its great for space usage, but also not the best as you can't warm up on the stove. They should (And probably will) develop a propane heater as well. Lantern, stove, and heater - Yeah baby! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solodude23 649 Posted November 4, 2014 Hoping this will be fixed soon - as others have said it doesn't seem like the *hardest* of things to fix and it would be more welcoming to new players. Also, I don't get why burnt meat makes you sick - I think this should be changed as well. It should surely have reduced nutritional value but as far as I know burned meat is just carcinogenic - and I think it comes on a bit quick for the sickness to be cancer. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CJFlint 357 Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) The stove should be a high piority fix. I SHOULD be able to provide heat and cook food with out burning it. Edited November 4, 2014 by CJFlint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voxframe 31 Posted November 5, 2014 Any word if this is fixed in the new stable? I can't get on to play for another good 24 hours :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pillock 850 Posted November 5, 2014 Peter / Lead Game Designer "With the delay of releasing stable version caused by crashes last week we entered a data freeze mode thus not many new things went into the experimental - mostly safe fixes or tweaks from our side. However work didn't stopped for the team.Currently we are working on enhancement of horticulture with fertilisers and protection against pests. Cooking is being prepared for refactoring and at the end gas cooker and fireplace will offer similar possibilities. Apart from that there are ongoing discussions about construction (base building), zombies AI, inventory and other aspects of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
