Vault 27
« on: April 29, 2010, 11:19:51 am »

How do I make my dorfs haul artifacts from the vulnerable surface dump and the workshops to my triple layer trap protected failsafe vault?
I already set the vault stockpile to only accept artifacts, and the other stockpile to not to. No, I did not miss any. The only thing that happened was the artifacts are not part of the old stockpile anymore. Yes, I have about 40 idling haulers, and I play 40d.

Try [q] on the desired destination stockpile, then "[t]ake from another stockpile"?

remove the surface stockpile. If you want to be really sure that all of your stuff makes it to safety, maybe assign a guard, and assign all other dorfs to hauling duty only (ie deactivate all other labors).

When I want to move artifacts, I usually forbid everything in the stockpile it is in, except the artifact, remove the stockpile, and create a 1x1 stockpile of the same kind where I want the artifact to be. Also, set it to not accept bins or barrels if needed. Soon, some dwarf will haul it to the new stockpile. Remove that stockpile and forbid the artifact, then recreate and un-forbid everything in the first stockpile.
