Farming Seed Autostack - Quality Killer

[lachlaan]

Well, if there is already a mechanism for piles of bones, entrails and so on, why could there not be the same for seeds, but a pile in your inventory ?

Because they are completely different things?

Because if you put in ten q10 bones and ten q20 bones you don't get 20 q15 bones. Meanwhile when you stack seeds you get all of them of the same quality, no?

But inventory stacks and stockpiles are two completely unrelated mechanics with no touching points whatsoever.

Could it not work like a quiver though? Or maybe let seed-bags act like a quiver that disables seed stacking? I don't even care if it doesn't give me more space in my inventory as long as I can turn it off in some way....

I just assumed he meant to just change inventory seed stacking to work as stockpiles do, but yeah in retrospect I do see how it could just mean that he thinks it's that easily doable.

OK, what about stacks of seeds ?
When you harvest, if there is a stack of seed in radius, harvested seeds go there, and if not, a stak is create near you in closest available place ?
After harvesting, you could just empty thoses piles of instakable seeds and put them in your main pile (pile could look like jute bag).

A simple solution would be to only stack seeds of the same quality.

Will consider this.

Cool, even just that would help a great deal.
I would no longer need to harvest an individual tile, dump the product in a container, repeat per tile.

Sorry to Necro this thread. Fully support this. Quality of crops is murdered.
