Exploding Cupboards?

[Ziegenkonig]

my cupboard was sitting there, I looked away, and when I looked back, the cupboard was gone, and all it's contents were scattered on the ground. The cupboard showed no signs of decay before this. What happened?

[loftar]

Cupboards decay in one hit; it is recommended that they be kept indoors.

[Ziegenkonig]

Got it, thanks.

Oh dear. I think I have to go find my cupboards now...or in 6 hours when I get home...

As a related question, do cabins prevent decay for things inside?

[Seizure]

Yes, things inside cabins will never decay.

This does not count for dead bodies, silkmoths, or stuff left on the ground.

[Cookie]

Yes they do, at least until the cupboard goes boom.

Also, if you must store a cupboard outside it lasts longer on paved ground. Everything decays more slowly on paved ground. Safest bet is inside a cupboard inside a house. Things on a house floor disappear but cupboards and things in a house don't decay at all.

BODIES?! DO PEOPLE LEAVE THOSE?! I think I'm going to start a collection (<.<)

Well, dead hearthlings leave skellies... And they seem to be indestructible.

I was talking about animals. Those will poof if left to long.
