Store liquids in Urns

Postby ImpalerWrG » Fri Mar 05, 2010 10:00 am

Urns are not very useful once larger containers become available but if they could also hold liquids (say half as much as a barrel) they would have a unique wet/dry flexibility. Obviously once the first dry item is placed in the Urn it cant be filled with any liquid and visa-verse. Also the Urn would lack the barrels aging affect on wine so it would replace the bucket as the most effective means to permanently store wine.

This alone would make this worth it imo, even if it is necessary/convenient to sacrifice the urns ability to store dry items.

Sounds good, but we would need a new medium storage option. Something easy to make, if not as easy as the wicker basket. A wooden 4x6 bin might be nice.
Surprise.

On further reflection I think wet/dry duel usage should be possible for both barrels and urns, but barrels should require some metal (for hoops) to make and have double the storage capacity of urns both wet & dry. Also barrels, urns and bottles should be considered 'sealed' containers ware wine will not turn to vinegar but the tanning tub (just generic 'tub' now I guess) and buckets would be 'open' and the product within would age/ferment/turn to leather etc etc. In principle a container should not so closely tied to a reaction but instead be in either the sealed or open class and various reactions occur in a particular type of container, this could also add a lot of variety to reactions without adding more ingredients much the way cheese types are determined by aging locations.

I like this idea, unfortunately I foresee Loftar having some trouble coding it... Fortunately he's going to have to put some effort into fixing liquid storage anyway (storing effects with the liquid rather than with the container) so maybe he can do them both at the same time
