You can now extinguish a fire, even if the fire is within another object.
Fixed in Patch 1.59.73
I'm sorry for responding so late, apparently my email program all of the sudden decided that the emails from EA HQ where spam. Sigh. Anyway, I clicked frantically on the flame so I have clicked a lot of areas but I didn't methodically click the whole flame. The object on fire was in this case a BBQ, and unfortunately I do not have that save anymore. I did try the next day to reproduce the error, but as always when you actually WANT something to go wrong, it doesn't happen. (Edit: I meant that nothing went up in flames so I couldn't test if I got the same error message!) If there is any way I can test it legit please let me know and I'd love to help!
@hestiah23, have you tried clicking different places of the fire? I found it is mostly a bug with layering in the game. I.e. other layers like the floor or placed items sometimes get more priority then the flame, which shouldn't happen of course. You probably have the best chance of actually selecting the fire at a 'dead' point, as in a location of it which doesn't cover the floor or an object. Because in those places there is literally nothing else to select then the fire itself!
@hestiah23, that is a real pain in the plum. I hope the devs find a way to make this work better!
