Storage all/none inverted by default

Suggestions
1

it would be nice if stockpiles/crates would be created with a “none” filter by default and you can specify the items to be stored after it’s built

I like to organize my stuff in multiple stockpiles for better overview
whenever I open a new stockpile I have tu hurry to set my preferred items before any of my muling Hearthlings dumps stuff in it that I don’t want there
this is especially the case when placing crates as the Hearthling placing it almost every time has stuff in the backpack that s/he immidately dumps in that placed crate

so having the setting on “none” by default would prevent that ^^
(or something like an “invert” option in the settings menu)

If your hearthlings drop something in the crate/stockpile before you have ticked it off, then they shoud, for example if they dropped stone in the food storage, take it out and put it into another crate/stockpile.

@FX5
There is a user setting for this. It’s not exposed in the settings menu at the moment, but maybe in the future.
For now, the setting is:
mods.stonehearth.default_storage_filter_none = true
You can either change the user setting by using the console window and then restarting the game. Or, edit the user_settings.json file where your stonehearth is installed and add this:
“mods” : {
“stonehearth” : {
“default_storage_filter_none” : true
}

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions or run into any issues.

thanks @yshan I’ll give it a try :smile:

Does this still work? I tried to make these changes to the user_settings.json file but I get an error and the game won’t start.

@WolffLaarcen, haven’t tested yet on A11 but was working fine on r453. My guess it’s a typo, probably a missing comma.

I know nothing about this, it might as well be in an alien language. :confused:

Try ending your file like this (… is the autosave line):

...
},
	"mods" : {
		"stonehearth" : {
			"default_storage_filter_none" : true
		}
	}
}

This is what ended up working for me:

"enable_auto_save" : true,
	"mods" : {
		"stonehearth" : {
			"default_storage_filter_none" : true
		}
	}
}

You were right, it was basically a comma. Thanks for the help! Its much more convenient IMO for stockpiles to start with no filters.

Indeed and it should be the default setting!

Upon closer inspection, this works for stockpiles but not crates. :worried:
