vfxtodd 125 Posted January 23, 2021 For some reason, I am unable to put a chicken breast on a stick. Or place a fireplace on the ground. Unfortunately, I discovered both (bugs?) at the same time. I found a cabin with a fireplace, where I was able to place a fireplace I crafted. After doing that, and lighting a fire, I proceeded to place a chicken breast onto a stick. To my surprise, I could not do that. Have the mechanics changed? Why am I unable to place a fireplace on the ground? Or add a chicken breast to a stick? Is it a server issue? Any ideas?

DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted January 23, 2021 You need to sharpen the stick first. Also, you don't need to use a stick if you are using a fireplace in a building. There are slots for cooking and for smoking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are slots for cooking and for smoking. This. Inhouse fireplaces you can put it directly into a slot. Baking or smoking the meat are the options. Side note: not every building Lets you put a fireplace on the ground. (Smoke hazard simulation i think) Some buildings you can put it on the doorstep whilst you sit safely out of the rain inside. About sharpening the stick: how would you irl sharpen a stick? Same logic applies ingame. (Unfortunately not all irl logic applies ingame) 🤣 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
