Food Rots in Large Meat Smoker

[remote swift]

Food rots in the large meat smoker before it smokes. Timings on all the food is off. Food cooks too fast, burns too fast, rots to fast, and never completes in the smokers. Hunger is too constant.

Cook the food before you smoke it. I cook it till it's almost done and put it in the smoker to finish it off

So far it's worked for me, vs if I don't they just smoke forever.

My bird meat has smoked for 11 hrs and it disapeared.

One of the issues in my game is that if i am too far away from the smoker, the cooking timers stop and get stuck and the only way to unfreeze them again was to pick it off the spot and put it back down. The food would never spoil as long as the fire kept going. But it took like 5 in game days for the meat to smoke. with me spending all most a full day staying in my hut right by it so it wouldn't get stuck

Did they disappeared or was this just the timer getting reset?

Brilliant work around

The food stayed, but the timer would stop

In regards to the large smokehouse, I put 6 bird meat in it, lit it and kept it going over the course of almost 4 in game days total. nothing smoked, nothing cooked, but it did prevent it from rotting as long as the fire kept going.

This was the second smoker I'd built as the first one I let the fire go out after the initial 14 + hours and the meat rotted and fell through to the sand. I rebuilt it because I thought it was bugged.

The description led me to believe it would actually cook the meat in a way that makes an extended rot timer, not just keeping it from rotting as long as the fire never goes out.
