How do i get iron bars?

[Ikasury]

this sounds dumb but i've tried every colony builder logic i know of:

build coal and iron mines on the 2nd island, both complain theres no storage: build more storage> still complain there's no storage; build storage next to them.

coal mine is 'too far away from storage' despite there being 2 +50 STORAGE facilities next to it > build smelter and iron bar manufacturer next to it> still complains there's no storage...

iron does the same> has smelter/iron bar facilities and two storage places next to them... still no storage...

set down 10 sacrifical piles to burn up literally everything i have so there's NOTHING IN STORAGE... still 'no storage'...

i have no iron or coal in storage, no iron or coal in the facilities that use them... cannot progress because i can't get iron bars to make more fancy buildings like idol carver to make my now naked cultists happy...

i am just confused... how exactly am i supposed to set this up? is there a limit to storage tab i can put on these bloody warehouses to they ONLY take coal/iron so i can MAYBE get something... i yet to see a SINGLE piece of coal yet i have two coal workers nearly level 20... and again, i have to make a single iron bar... wtf am i doing wrong?

I encountered this with different Tier 2 production on the Goatmarsh map.

There's TWO storage-related buildings. One simply expands storage. The other, the Storage Office, expands reach. (I know, it's weird and should be adjusted.)

This is your problem. The +50 building does increase the amount you can store. However, it does not allow for deposition. Only the +10 storage building can accept and distribute goods.

Personally i dont see the point in building the +50 building at the moment, as for most goods there is little to no reason why you would need a big stockpile. Blood for larger groups of horrors and planks for fast building on a new island being the exception.
