Storage problems

[ZeeTuga]

So, the future of the storage problems is just more and more stockpiles or at some points i will unlock buildings with real space ?
How do you guys take care of the space problems ?

[Damianus]

you can limit how many resources of a kind you want your people to gather

[HenryOfSkalitz]

You will unlock larger stockpiles

Barns and then warehouses.
But production and inventory management through top up orders and storage min/max limits is core gameplay

yeh, i saw now that i already had the barn, i have to check it out, right now my problem is with itens that farmers plant on the farm, for some reason i choose 100 when i realize theres already like 200 of a plant

Prime example of setting limit in storage. Field top ups are based on total is storage and on the field ready to harvest. But once the amount is under, every available seeds gets planted because the end yield is variable based on skill of the planter, setting a storage limit prevents everything from getting harvested all at once and flooding storage

Ohhhh !! I didnt know what you guys were talking about when you said 'Setting a storage limit', so i when to check out that and i realize that you could do that in the stockpile options. Interesting, thanks

Thanks for this. I've been playing this game for almost 3 months and never knew you could set those limits. LOL

I think this mechanic is lost on a lot of people.. anytime I see a post about having more than one warehouse.. I don;t understand what people are hoarding.. lol.. like in my main play-through where I had like 150 hours I had a half full ware house.. and 3 half full barns. Like nobody needs 1000 wheat at a time in storage.

Hoarders will always be hoarders, but yes, it´s actually extremely easy to manage limited warehouse space. I don´t even build that big warehouse, I like the barns and the way they look, it also allows me to place them near suited workplaces.

After 40h i just found out that you can see more info on the settlement tab like their gear/food and such before that i was talking to then one by one to see this info, or that you dont need to talk to then for then to read a book, its funny how so many food mech are 'hidden' and it takes alot of time to found out.
