If you (or any other entity) are on fire and stand in a cauldron with water in it, the fire will not go out. Also when this is fixed, AI should count cauldrons as a water source when trying to avoid burning. |

Whoo implemented =) But it only works 3 times, as it uses up the water |

I thought Mojang decided not to do this. If I remember correctly, they were originally going to do this, but decided not to. I'm probably wrong, however. |

Well, I'm pretty sure they have more important things that really need to be fixed |

Sphax: The same for the cauldron... If cauldrons should vanish fire (I think it's totally pointless), lava bucket should burn because when you throw a bucket at lava it burns! |

Gabriel: Minecraft has some illogical features by gamedesign... |

Minecraft have some "Functional bugs" (according to you) for a long time, floating blocks, animals without grender but still breeding, you can get lava with a bucket (and hold it in your hand!), infinite water, trees grow instantly. And you say that the water in the cauldron not vanishing fire should be fixed because it's water inside. |

|
So you want the lava bucket removed from the game? |

If a new player looks at a cauldron, he can see water in it. It's not that important to know that what he see is not technically a water block... What is important is that the water he looks at doesn't extinguishes fire... That's an inconsistent behavior which can be called a "functional bug". Functional bug = A feature which works well technically but has an inconsistent behavior vs other features (like a furnace which would not be able to use charcoal when he can use coal as fuel) Technical bug = A feature which doesn't work well technically (like a memory leak or a missing polygon in a 3D model) This report IS a functional bug but is not a technical bug. Then it's up to Mojang team to decide on what they do with it. |

It's not a bug if it's not programed to do it, it's a sugestion. |

Please, stop speaking about how the game is made technically... Ask this questions to you: |

There is no "real" water in the cauldron, it is simply showing that there is still water stored in it. You cannot put yourself out with water that isn't there. |

Reopened. |

Yes, that's why the glitch happens. Cauldrons are a special case that Mojang forgot to account for. |
| Comment by Anon Ymus [ 27/Nov/12 ] |
|
Cauldrons do not contain a water block (source or flowing). |
| Comment by Stephen [ 27/Nov/12 ] |
|
So then this is a bug, standing in water normally puts out fire and this is not consistent with that behavior. |

Here ya go: Bug: A mistake in a software project. Any observed reproducible behavior not consistent with the behavior intended by the developers may be classified as a bug. |

Is there a guideline for what is and isn't considered a suggestion? I consider water not putting out fire to be a bug. |
