Smelting items in a furnace, then unloading the chunk it's in causes the furnace to lose their contents when the chunk is reloaded, but still showing the lit texture (if it was still supposed to be smelting)
What I expected to happen was...:
The contents of the furnace remain intact
What actually happened was...:
The input, output, and fuel slots were empty
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Begin smelting anything in a furnace
2. Walk/fly away
3. Return to the furnace. The contents should be gone
As far as I can tell. The contents do not get deleted if the furnace wasn't smelting anything when it gets unloaded. It only appears to be when smelting
