New Stockpiles, no ballista ammo?
« on: October 29, 2006, 08:25:00 pm »

After checking out the new customizable stockpiles (thank you Toady, they TOTALLY ROCK!!!), I noticed that ballista ammunition is not listed anywhere on any of them.

Any chance they could be added to the ammunition (since it is ammunition) or weapon (since they can be stored on weapon racks) listings?

Yeah, they should probably go somewhere.  Especially because you can't use weapon racks and armor stands for anything for the time being!

Yeah.  Start using weapon and armor piles.  Weapon racks and armor stands are going to be used by individual soldiers with equipment they claim later, but until that's in we'll be piling things up in bins.  Handy for the post-siege debris anyway.

Sweet, because consecutive sieges really leave clutter.

In the old versions Balista arrows didn't seem to have anywhere to go(never went to weapon racks even when set). So if you have a main area where most of your ballistae are located, make sure you build your Siege workshop, since all the built arrows will be left there.

As I recall, one ballista arrow required an entire weapon rack to itself.  If you wanted to get one on a rack, you usually needed to assign the rack to just ballista arrows as a result.

Not how it works anymore, obviously.

Yeah, trap components and siege ammo are currently without a home.  I'll have to fix it up whenever I next get a chance to work on the game...  which wasn't today.
