Drink Stockpile Problem.
« on: April 30, 2009, 10:04:09 pm »

I'm trying to set up a drink stockpile next to my jail cells, so prisoners will be able to drink then, but the problem is, my dwarves just bring empty barrels. 

How do i get them to bring drink?

The stockpiles are set to Drinks only...

Well how I've been doing it, is setting up a drink only stockpile then going to the main drink stock pile and forbidding all drinks. Then turing it off at the main stock pile when the secondary stockpiles have enough booze is to turn it on at the main stock pile again. A little bit of baby sitting, but I find it works for me.

First you set up a drink only stockpile.  <p, t, food>, and then < b >lock all, and <p>ermit plant drinks only.

Then you use <q, t> to "take" from another stockpile, and choose your main alcohol one.

That should do it.

is it a 1x1 drink stockpile?  try making it 1x2 to get past the first empty barrel they like to put there.
