I am hoping this is a simple fix . . . I have just started a new fortress and have thus far three stockpiles; one for my refuse located outside, one for my seeds next to my farm and one for general use next to where my workshops will be located. Every time I change what goes in stock pile it changes it for them all. I am about to brutally vivisect my computer in frustration stumped as to how to fix this problem.

How are you changing the stockpiles? Also what version of DF?

[ykcud]

The version is 34.11 and I change them via t to the custom settings.

Try checking your stockpiles with 'q' 's'. The custom stockpile lets you create a stockpile template that you can then use to create stockpiles. So after you place them the stockpiles will retain settings and you can change the template but the already placed stockpiles won't be affected.

Feel like I am explaining it poorly.

Edit: Think of it like cutting cookies in cookie dough. If you deform the cookie cutter after cutting a cookie you won't change any cookies already cut just ones you cut in the future.

Using q and s seems to work. Thank you.

That doesn't change the settings of a stockpile. That changes what the settings are on new stockpiles created with p-c.
