The fire pit is a fire building that was added in update v0.01 to The Forest.
Gameplay[]
The Fire Pit is one of four types of fires, that player can build. It can serve as a source of light, warmth and can be used for cooking meat. To prevent fire from being extinguished, you can put additional leaves into it by standing close to fire and pressing C
.
Cannibal bodies can be burned on it to get bones and skulls.
Fire, especially if lit in an open area and during the night, will attract Cannibals and Mutants.
There is a fire warm whole house system that was introduced in v0.32 that allows a whole house to be warmed with just one fire. This allows the player to be warm without standing right next to the fire. Log Cabins were later added in v0.33 to receive the effect.

Purpose[]
This fire burns for very long time.
If you equip raw or dried fish meat, rabbit meat, lizard meat or meat and press C
while looking at the fire, it will start cooking, and you can eat it to replenish your hunger.
You can get rid of cold status by standing next to this fire for a moment.
Mutants and the player itself can light on fire and start burning, by getting too close.
