In the most recent build (375) i’ve noticed that sometimes the Hearthlings place items on top of one another in a stock pile.

ah yes, this has been an on going “problem” for awhile now, though its not game breaking.
usually people report it because items were “glowing” or looked brighter then normal.

Aha…
I expected it to be low priority… The only annoying part about it is if its furniture. 
But then again you could always go to the build menu to place furniture…

It seems to happen to me when the bottom item is a furniture item that has a corresponding ghost image somewhere in the real world.
hmm… then the case might be, with furniture, that if its going to be placed but hasnt left yet, the spot is still considered empty… i think @RepeatPan will be able to give more insight on this. and most likely prove my theory wrong…

Technically, there’s a reservation system in place that should avoid such situations. It’s possible that it hiccups from time to time, or under certain, rather rare conditions.
