Seed stockpile
« on: September 28, 2006, 10:42:00 pm »

Am I the only one who really hates it when the farmers in the fringey parts of your fortress have to travel all the way to your main central food stockpile to get seeds?  You should be able to create a seed stockpile that they can use instead, and actually have the seeds by your farms where they might help your farmers.

Well, you already have an incentive to put your food stockpile near your farm to speed up the harvest, at least, so it's not that bad.  The fact that potash seems to go in the bars/blocks stockpile is worse.

How about a stockpile 2 squares from a farm that I had where the fullest it got was 3 plump helmets?  The dwarves kept hauling it all back to my kitchen stockpile! I was hoping they'd use the second one so that in the next year there would be seeds in that pile for a quicker planting.
