One thing I never understood.

When you are looking at stocks on hand you have two columns, one white and one red. What are the red numbers for?

The number of items on the site, that are not owned by you [forbidden/caravan].

I can be wrong.

Red numbers are the number that aren't available for use - they're either owned by traders, forbidden, melt designated, or dump designated.

For plants, it can also mean plants which are ready to be harvested.

And those that are being used in buildings.

Actually planted seeds and ready-to-harvest plants count as built (t over a farm and seeds will have ) so they count.

One thing I noticed is that the two numbers only update if you enter and exit the stock screen, not in real-time as you are forbidding stuff through it.
