How do I store armor?
« on: March 20, 2007, 01:29:00 pm »
I have barracks. I put armor stands in there. I allowed the armor stands to carry all items of bone, leather or bronze (that's all my dwarves made themselves).

I unassigned the baracks from the bed, re-assigned the barracks from one armor stand.

Permit all materials. Permit all items.

Still, the armor is cluttering the forges and doesn't get moved. No entry in the (short) jobs list, either.

What am I doing wrong? I know I once had armor stored properly. But try as I might, it won't work this time.

Armor stands and weapon racks havn't been able to store items for a while, I think since customisable stockpiles went in.  You'll need to set up an armor stockpile.

Ah, there it is! It totally escaped my attention so far. Thank you.

(To tell you the truth, I like armor stockpiles much more than the armor stand approach. The latter has much more style, of course, but is really a PITA when it comes to handling 100 suits. Or even 10, actually.)
