Material priority bug with the belt

Post by Flyrella »

So, I was building a potters wheel and had all the materials in my inventory. And somehow it used a rope from my belt instead of the inventory one. And the belt rope I wasn't touching for weeks so the priority should be of the most recently touched.

Basically days of work of our whole village are wasted. So annoying :(

Dunno if this is technically a bug or not but something needs to be changed, people can easily forget they have rope on belt, you cant expect people to check their belt from crudQ rope when they try to build as HQ Potter's Wheel as possible.

It's basically the same issue as it was with crafting setting the priority on waterflasks instead barrels or buckets in open containers.
Solution should be similar.

Not only might they forget that there's a rope on a belt, they might not even know it's there as they do get swapped out automatically when performing another task if the player had a rope in hand. If two+ people (or characters) are using and rotating between the same belts and don't check, it'd be pretty easy not to know it is there.
