Additional Information

Related to this 'http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=21134 ' issue as part of this problem could be having the fireplace fall through the ground.

Also related to this 'http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=18533 ' issue as using that bug will render the Fireplace permanently not safe to ignite, even if the Fireplace is in a safe location.

Unable to light the fireplace after having used the 'http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=18533 ' bug, even though the fireplace is in a completely safe location.

Tonight, I tried to ignite an oven in Myshkino (izurvive.com coordinates: 020/080) outside not in a building (upon the end of an aspahlt street to be exactly) and got the messages, that it's not safe there. Beeing too steep, which is a new status, would have been understandable (to some extend) - but 'not safe'?!

  • Edith --

Regarding report 0018533 draging the fireplace will cause it to become permanently not safe to ignite since 0.53. That's what happend in my case.

Friends of mine lighted a fireplace right on top of a haybale in one of the single-story haybarns.

Me, on the other hand, I couldn't light a fire right in the middle of the open of a castle courtyard.

Yes, it's terribly inconsistent.
