If you open the pie chart (f3+1), then going to tick, level, then block entities, it shows all the block entities around you. Lit campfires will show up, but extinguished campfires will not. Notably, soul campfires, lit or not, also do not show up on the pie chart.
How to reproduce:
-open a superflat world without structures, to ensure no other block entities are generated naturally
-place a campfire
-open the pie chart, then press the numbers corresponding to tick, level, then block entities (in that order)
-campfire should show up
-extinguish campfire using a shovel/water/etc
-close and reopen pie chart
-campfire no longer shows up
This seems a bit inconsistent, I suggest making unlit campfires visible on the pie chart if possible
Thank you for your report!
