Organizing barrel and bin contents.
« on: May 18, 2012, 11:18:26 pm »
Okay, this is a simple one, that i feel would make things SO much easier come trading time.
An option at the stockpiles to have your dwarves put only ONE type of item in the barrels and bins. This would make it a LOT easier to say...sell off the mountain of plump helmet seeds you have no need for, or even just to get rid of the dang thing. It would also make manual inventory of different kinds of objects much easier.

Obviously this wouldn't be something you'd want to do ALL the time, since it probably WOULD mean using more barrels and bins, but for ease of organization, it'd probably help a lot.

You can already do this to some degree by switching off the mix food option, but it would be nice for other things.

Listen up: making a thing a ‼thing‼ doesn't make it more awesome or extreme.  It simply indicates the thing is on fire.  Get it right or look like a silly poser.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.
