still no "craft from nearby chests" for 1.0 release?

[annoyingamy]

THE most requested feature for 2+ years, and you really release the game without it? must be some kind of late april fools joke. instead of making the game bigger and bigger, how about you make it BETTER first?

[Suzaku]

Is that something we're sure isn't coming? No doubt there's plenty of info about the patch we've not been told.

[DragonBoner]

i do not support this!

[Aetemes]

I thought I saw someone say that during an interview with the devs, they are -not- going to implement craft from chests "exactly", but they'll make keeping things organised a lot easier, and that will in turn make crafting more pleasant.

From what I recall something to the effect of, let's say you have a chest dedicated to plants, ores ,whatever, once you get in base you can just drop your loot into their respective chests by a button - or something like that.

I don't think they explained why not craft from chests though.

[Dribs]

I do not agree that crafting from chests would be the most important thing to add to the game, VERY, VERY, VERY far from it.

I'm not even sure it would make the game better. Just become ogranized, and its no prob.

So I do not support this message.

[Smug Kot]

Intentionally no, they don't want you to go full lazy with that but theres gonna be changes how to organize and chest works.

Also like most things in this game, they need to factor the PvP balance on it, emergency doors repairs during a raid would be a lot easier with something like this.

[Garble]

I thought I had seen them discussing multiple ways they could do something like this, though I don't remember where, nor do I remember if they were leaning towards any specific method.

I'd like the feature, or some kind of qol in this vein, but I'm not bothered if it's not added.
I've played enough games where you have to have the stuff in your inventory, the handful of games that allow you to do it otherwise are outliers.

Honestly, seeing how hard they have been ignoring the top 10-20 feature requests with the EA now ending, i won't be holding my breath. They have been neglecting the community pretty hard this entire time.

You are in the minority with this mindset.

Due to stack sizes being tiny, you still need rows upon rows upon rows upon rows of cabinets even as a solo player. Organization is not the issue here, it's the sheer amount of resources and junk in the game that's needed for a multitude of different things which makes crafting an unnecessary pain in the behind, hence, people want to craft from containers which is a more than reasonable request.

You don't craft doors, you build them.. And you require bricks/planks to do so which are refined resources, not crafting stuff.

so you enjoy running through your base because you completely forgot one ingridient ?

First, I dont care - and second, can you prove that statement?

I dont have this problem at all. I dont need stacks and stacks of containers. I dont feel overwhelmed by the amount of different resources «required». I can see how fresh players do, but as they learn the game that feeling should diminish a LOT over time. I dont find crafting to be a pain in the behind, instead I see value in being, organized and effective, while at the same time I feel lazy QOL additions like this would be, reverse that.

I think you and players like you might benefit from being more organized and spend that little extra time to refine resources as they come in, which can be done with very little time - even without mods, if you succeed at the first point. At that point youd realize you dont really need to stash that much resources and crafting isnt really such a pain in the end afterall. Atleast I believe so.

At the end of the day, we are all different and these viewpoints are evidence of that. Ive literally played on servers with stash mods and never even used them because they caused more issues than without. But you would probably love it.

Sounds like someone isnt organized well enough or have built their castle inefficiently.

[anonymous316]

It isn't something necessary but I always enjoy it when a game lets you craft from nearby chest, not too many games seem to use the feature though.

If you really didn't care, you wouldn't have replied, nor would you have asked for proof.

Good for you, Mr Anecdotal Fallacy. The game has quite literally hundreds of different kinds of items and materials that you actively need to craft with regularly. Assuming you only keep a few stacks of each, you're still looking at 20-40 containers MINIMUM + workbenches + refinery stations.

It's an absolute clusterfudge and the majority of the player base is sick and tired of it.

This would be a gamechanger

[Supahslm]

If nothing else, for solo play; and maybe make it a tech itself. I want to be a vampire, out doing vampire things, not organizing cabinets and chests. I guess that's part of the fun for some though?

[Palicai]

Part of the charm for me and the wife was to organize each crafting room with the materials needed, and it was NO problem. Crafting from chests would make it trivial to actually design good rooms, because a few chests huddled togheter would reach all the benches.

So no thanks, i prefer to actually organize and not be lazy, part of the planning.
