Bigger Containers

Post by LadyGoo »

There is a growing need in containers or extra space for traders in the market. It would be nice if there would be some bigger containers.

Or then just some better way to put lot of stuff in barter stand.
Maybe multiple hands that you get from barter stand.

Just as a suggestion, you should probably specify how much space is "good enough" for your average trader, so when the devs see this they don't have to figure it out themselves (or end up making an estimate that everyone else doesn't agree with).
IMO I think bigger containers would probably just end up being used to replace LCs and cupboards in purposes other than trading, though. So maybe what shubla is suggesting is not a bad idea.

Multiple hands could be a solution, problem is that they all look the same - so they should at least display what is configured in the vendor for the slot they belong to.

Naming vendor stands should be thing.
THen there could be name of owner and stand on hands.

Bigger barrels too! My flour barrels are taking up a house worth of space.. and i still have bucket fulls of seeds waiting to be ground..

Mass Storage is a must at this point.

Maybe bump up the cap of a few Stockpiles; like Beats, Carrots, Flax and Hemp Fibers..?

The only large containers that fit the period are a tun, which is for large wine or beer storage, and bins.

When people sell me 15 items per coin, that is not the solution. It is for cupboards with coins only.

More is better? If I would have a container of 200-300 slots, my traders would not face the problem, that after buying a couple of coins for blueberries the container is full.

It would great to have more storage, but also more static storage containers that you cant move like sheds (imagine 4x cupboard), silos, shelves, water tower and those chests from old world that cant be moved and can be locked.
