Storage?

[Steplayz-gaming Youtube Creator]

Ok so iv made some small chests and a mass storgage bin but is there anything that stores a lot of items at all? is there anyway to carry more in my cart as i see in some pics people have chests in the carts?

As a new player myself, I don't think there is one "best" storage solution. Specific chests/crates have their own specific usage, for example large crate as explained in the wurmpedia http://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Large_crate - strong player (or friend) can load on a cart for good storage potential, but it has several disadvantages.

You may find it beneficial to look at articles under storage in wurmpedia.

You can put rafts into a large cart which helps increase capacity, think it caps out @ 7 though. Pretty sure everything aside from BSB and FSB caps out at 100 items (fountains and huge tubs may be exempt can't remember I always just built more large chests and coffins)

for in cart solutions you'd want crates, rafts and backpacks, put the large items (dirt, sand, logs, stone, etc) in the crates, anything that can fit in good quantity in the backpacks, then everything else in rafts. Oh and liquids you'd want barrels.

The main problem with crates is that it takes quite a while to unlock the large ones.

As to how many crates vs rafts you'll want depends on your needs. Backpacks can easily fit in rafts too.

So looks like it maybe a good idea to make myself a large cart as I only have a small one at present coffins not seen those il have to have a look I was hoping something with say 500 storage would have been great also my backpack how does that work if I put stuff in there does it give me that plus my inventory space also ?

Yes a large cart is definitely best so you can load crates and stuff into it, a small cart can only hold for example 40 dirt, a large cart is limited only by what containers are in it if you have 2 horses attached.

Ooo forgot about coffins, you'll definitely want one of those sitting around as some objects (example troll clubs), are just too big to fit anywhere else, though their not good for transporting.

The closest to 500 storage would be the large crate at 300.

Backpacks are just normal containers, they count towards your inventory weight, they just allow you to hold more items. So if say you're out cutting a load of grass to make a timber framed house, you'd want to carry a few of them either on you or in your cart as any container can only hold 100 items, the exception being crates and bulk bins.
