Make containers full of liquid not count towards barrel total of stockpile
« on: July 29, 2012, 10:42:20 am »
There is a known issue most often seen with barrels of alcoholic drink in food stockpiles. 

Suppose you have a food stockpile set to allow only drink not solid food.

1. If your stockpile is set to use Zero Barrels then barrels of alcohol will never be stored there.
2. If your stockpile is set to use one or more barrels then empty barrels will not be removed* to make way for full ones.

* They will be removed if needed to store something in them.

If barrels (+large pots?) didn't count as 'barrels' for the purpose of stockpile barrel usage both these problems should be solved.

Try having a furniture stockpile set to accept all the excess barrels and bins.

They'll still put one empty bin and/or barrel on the stockpile, but that's not as bad.
