Each item's description should say how it's stockpiled
« on: March 19, 2024, 03:12:39 pm »

I propose that each item description should have a section, perhaps a new paragraph, that simply states in what stockpile category(ies) and sub-category(ies) the item will be put when stockpiled — preferably including whether it can be stored in barrels or bins. This would save running to the wiki to find the information or working it out through a frustrating process of elimination. Most such categories are intuitively obvious, but many are not.

I make this proposal on the premise that there are many things the player playing as the dwarves can and should be able to figure out, but the player should probably be told any information that the dwarves possess inherently, such as how they would categorize an item.
