Help With Zombie Porters - Stone/Marble

[Fridge Lord]

Hi,

I'm about to build my marble quarry and set up zombie marble miners. I already have 2 stone miners, and a porter bringing the stone to my work area. In the work area I have 2 stone stockpiles.

I want to know how to prioritize the porters so they will bring me marble -and- stone, ideally half and half, and not end up with a situation where both stockpiles are full of stone and the porters cannot unload marble to my work area.

Can someone help? Thanks.

I have the whole place build out atm.
i set up 3 porters. they all carry gold, silver
1 is set up to carry iron and coal
1 is setup to carry only stone (and the gold/silver all have)
and the last only carries marble (and the gold/silver all have)

i haven't had them up for long. but so far my stockpiles are half half pretty much
also ALL my zombies in the quarry are at 15% efficiency.
hell. all zombies except the farming and alchemy zombies of mine are at 15

So are you saying that all you had to do is make 2 separate porters, one for stone and one for marble, and they are not mixing up your stockpiles and closing out one of the resources from being stocked?

that has bin my experience so far. i might have gotten lucky. but who knows.

Makes sense tho. 1 does marble. 1 does stone. and they walk just as fast. and there's no risk of one taking waht they shouldn't take
