Zombie porters transporting ore or stone blocks, not both. EDIT:: Not transporting blocks at all???::

[Claem]

I'm assuming it's a sort of priority system that hasn't been ironed out yet?

I have a stone and iron storage spot both at my house and at the cabin in the woods (the blocks, not the single pieces).

I have a zombies at work by the cabin in the woods at a) the stone quarry, the iron quarry c) the porter station.

At the cabin by the woods, both the stone and iron quarries are full.

When the porter brings supplies to my house, he only brings ore, even if the ore is full. My stone storage has been empty for weeks.

The only thing I've been able to do to get around this is to journey up to the cabin and tell my zombie to stop transporting iron.

I know it's a pretty painless trip, but I feel like it kinda kills the point of having an automated system to autofill your supplies for you if you have to stop and go tell them what supplies you want.

Is this intended?

EDIT::
Unchecking iron blocks from his 'allowed list' worked for a little while, but I'm not sure at what point that stopped working too. I just went back and watched him for about three days and he's just carrying a full pack and not dropping off either iron or stone blocks. Both pallets were half-empty the entire time and didn't increase count at all.

I have checked a couple of other threads with similar issues and they all seem to be saying that the block storage is full.

Block storage at cabin in the woods is full.

Block storage at home is the one that stays constantly empty.

Zombies are grabbing blocks from cabin in woods, walking to my home cabin, and carrying them back again.

Not sure, but I have the same problem. It's an easy fix, but I agree it's kind of annoying. Doubt it's intended, but who knows =/.

I did not have troubles with my porter after making a chest to hold coal... he brings coal, iron ore blocks, and stone and marble blocks all without a hassle

I have a chest about two spaces south of the blueprint station. It's empty, he never uses it.

He does drop off coal in one of my chests at home though.

Is there another trunk area that I'm missing, that I need to build in?

On the other hand, my zombie porters have a bad habit of dropping their cargo in front of the source port if they have ahd to return with it due to the destination being full. This happens even at the Sawmill, where there is no excuse of "switching to a different cargo type but the source storage area is full".
