I suspect OP would disagree with that, so somehow I have to doubt that the numerology really matters that much.


24 just seems impractically small. But requesting something I can do by just 'not filling the stockpile' seemed silly.

32 would work as well.

As far as 'numerology'? >.> Admittedly '5x8' was a pleasing product to my mind.

I could be sold on something like a "storehouse" that functions like a granary but stores stockpiled goods in much higher quantities. Roughly the same size as a great hall maybe, only able to take out a regular stockpile worth into a wheelbarrow. Thoughts?

I've specifically used Great Halls for this, or just built sprawling underground caverns for this. Doesn't really need its own building.

Good point. I take it back. 40 is better than 32.

The advantages of a single building you could interface with like a shed or knarr or cart... or whatever... is that it takes up a small footprint compared to a bunch of scattered stockpiles (and hopefully won't need a few dozen wheelbarrows like a shed, knarr, or whatever). I like the idea.

I like that argument better than the cupboard one. Just put two boards in your inventory you lazy bums. ¦]

One could argue that, for storage, it would be helpful if the footprint (hitbox) of several stockpiles, among them for boards but also stuff like pumpkin, would be reduced a bit.

Metal Stockpile used to have capacity equal to bars shown in full stockpile (14 or 15), but playerbase deemed it too low and complained until it was increased to 25.

Metal stockpiles are so useless I just use cupboards. Smaller footprint, nearly triple the capacity.
