'R'eserved designation
« on: October 20, 2021, 06:15:09 am »

Though the hotkey is directly contested, a brand new designation would be immensely helpful in keeping dwarven hands off goods that are in plain sight by discriminating the applications they're able to be used, without fully forbidding them if they need to be transported.

Commonly and most focally to the issue, it could apply to booze supplies & taverns, since dwarves are very partial to picking up a cup and serving theselves then threatening their own lives, asking for more alcohol buzzed out a fast-road to self-poisoning or to maintain a fortress that mostly subsides on water for thirst and goes to the tavern especially for alcohol.
  • Workshop profile orders could be grouped to auto-apply reserved upon their finished products.
  • Affecting seeds and edible food to not to be swindled by hungry dwarves bringing them to their tables and instead seek out some finished meals by showing some restraint.
  • Material wealth and objects can be set aside to try and subvert haulers wishing to obtain it, and ensure the desperate mood stricken or direct sanction of the player can have access when needed, like trade goods.
