Hello, just wanted to add that in 1.06 the issue got even bigger - it is now for me impossible to even reach the 'precision' end as various actions seem to reset the skill to the middle when I'm getting close to the left. Once it was mending an axe with a duct tape. Please consider a fix, it would be nice to test the soft skills.

Hello Geez,

Thank you so much, Geez!

So there's still something to report here - putting meat into pots should be easier after all, i.e. should work like any other similar action with First Aid Kits, etc.

Further, I can confirm we still have the fish problem.

Further, maybe the devs could get around to fix the gas stove bug! :)

Gabe, when you mentioned fish, did you fish it in 0.53? Pre-wipe fish sure doesn't cook.

Frying pans don't work.

You can open your cooking pot in your inventory and if there is a steak there, you can 'switch' (blue icon) a steak in your backpack for the one in. However, the one going in simply disappears (you retrieve the one switched for).

The real clown, that would explain it all. The issue was not ruining food, the issue was that many people couldn't put anything inside the pot.

I managed to put fish fillets in the frying pan and stick it to the furnace, but it didn't cook although I kept feeding it with wood. But Gabe says fish is bugged... Will test further on other animals.

Gabe, this is definitely a bug. I've tried it all - fireplace, furnace, tripod, cooking pot, frying pan. You can't put anything in the pot/pan and whatever is put in the fireplace gets ruined.
