Greedy Crates Don't Want To Share

[SirAstrix]

@Voqar

I started a game the day before 2865 hit and started a new one after it and both times crates just don’t work. In both cases I tried switching from an initial general stockpile to stacked crates for more specific storage, and what ends up happening is they’ll load up the crates just fine, but they just will not consistently take stuff out of crates.

Refer to this;

Using Pots as Food Storage - Not refilling after hitting limit

Not that I saw, and it was not one of the fixes Yang mentioned to me…

@Voqar

Side note - I wish stockpiles/storage started off set to “nothing” rather than “all”

Check gameplay tab in settings. There’s an option for that.

@Voqar

the animals that befriend your hearthlings seem to eat stuff off the ground (like freshly harvested veggies) but they won’t eat out of crates either.

Pet Food Bowls - Think of the bunnies!

So I’ve noticed that pets can’t eat food that’s stored in containers, but can eat food that’s either dropped by hearthlings or food that’s stored on the ground. Thus I suggest that instead of us having that 1x1 storage square for them to eat, instead they get their own food bowl that can be crafted either by the wood or stonesmiths.
