How do I actually haul ballista parts/ammo?
« on: July 18, 2016, 04:09:14 pm »
Seriously, I can't get things to haul at all. I can build ballistae, and they'll load a single arrow into them, but nobody moves parts or ammo into their respective stockpiles: not arrows, not arrowheads, not ballista parts. I've got stockpiles for these things, but nobody moves anything. Even deconstructing the siege workshop accomplished nothing.

This is something that's frustratingly impossible for my fort, and I don't know why. Am I missing something really obvious? (I know there's the idea of just one stockpile, but even that hasn't worked in the past. And besides, that seems like a crummy "solution".)

Maybe you messed up the stockpile settings? Make sure you didn't disable materials, quality, or that one sneaky organic/inorganic setting (below all the other stockpile types.) Make sure it's set to take from anywhere.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Nope, made sure I was permissive as possible with the settings, only restricting to siege ammo, but of any type/quality/etc. I tried having both linked and unlinked stockpiles as well, but no dice.
