In snapshot 25w16a, when an arrow is used as fuel in a furnace, the item smelts correctly and is consumed, but the arrow does not appear visually in the fuel slot while smelting. This makes it seem like the furnace is not using any fuel, even though the smelting continues as expected.
Environment
Environment:
Vanilla Minecraft Java Edition 25w16a.
Singleplayer world.
Running on Windows 10, Java 17.
No mods or data packs installed.
New world created in this snapshot.
