You carry stockpileable items NOT in wheelbarrows but in other types of containers.
It's just a logical / convenience thing. I dont understand why you get so upset about it, please be constructive, pinkie.

My character is very well built up so far, but why cant I address such a thing?


I'm just confused as to what, exactly, you want. Like I pointed out, we have an object that can store/move up to 20 stock piles...

Its a pain in the ass to lift the wheel barrel, walk through the door, and place the wheel barrel? Perhaps a game where it take time to build up a character is not for you?

Also are you guys moving stock piles so often that the ability to move 6 at once ( or fucking 20 with a wagon) is too slow?


About my quote: My computer is quite slow, it takes 3-4 seconds to load when going inside a building and takes almost 10 seconds to load outside a building. I got more than 600 bones stockpiled outside and i want to put it on my cellar. It would take at least 10 trips to go from my stockpiles -> cellar doing this. My solution was to make my hearthfire where i wanted to move the stock piles and put 2 wheelbarrows on a boat to quickly move then, and that is my only concern. I would like to have something like a cart that could move 2-3 liftable objects inside and outside a building, just it.

And i agree with you about moving 6-20 stockpiles at once is enough.

Not necessarily your computer, but your network connection. It's not necessarily a bad idea, but what would be the penalty be for storing a whole stockpile in a container? I'd say it's going to move you at the speed of lifted objects.

Now, if one could say "I'd like to be able to dump the contents of my wheelbarrow into a cart so I only need one wheelbarrow," then you'd have a truly excellent idea. Still makes it a pain in the ass to move stuff between a mine and above ground, into the house, etc, and that's a qol issue that could be tackled by a great idea, too.

That idea sounds even more sensible and wouldn't require a whole new container.

Could be a pickup timer on them, perhaps. Will consider.
