mmmm, I think you need to put one item inside each container, then use the option to add it to the list ( first option ).

I can confirm. Been using this mod for a few weeks now. Latest updates removed the option to select storage to pull from.

I don't think he means the storage, but the feature where the Snail Collector automatically picks up the paste and polymer. It's not working on our server either for any of the objects that pick things up. So, Veggie crate, egg crate, etc.

So right now it's impossible to pull oil from dino into Oil drum?

Hello for me it's the same..they don't pull anymore..

same here, they don't pull anymore and i dont like the Control console

Not entirely true... you guys are right that the veggie crate, snail collector, and oil drum no longer auto-pull, but the compost bin still auto-pulls poop, silo still auto-pulls fertilzer and distributes to crop plots, and egg crate still picks up eggs automatically... I've just now stopped playing and can confirm my findings.

The Snail Collector and Oil Drum does not autopull anymore. All pulling goes through the Control Console. Add Oil, Achatina Paste and Organic Polymer to their designated storages, add them to OCD-list and have Console distribute accordingly. Remember, one storage can have several resources on the list if wanted.

Egg Crate, Compost Bin and Fertilizer Silo still does their job.

What he said. Same as me, but more elegantly, and with solutions... BTW, got it all dialed in now. Once you get used to using the Control Console, you'll never want to go back...

The problem with the control console...it pulls everything. So, when a tribemate drops by from his other base...it pulls that player's dino's inventory into my system. When I'm setting up to go out on a hunt, or to tame a creature, or to build something....I have 5 minutes to load up everything and get out of range before my dino is emptied. The amount of micromanagement required to get the system working is too much. My tribemates and I have essentially turned off all the Automated pieces of AA, and just use the freezers, generators, and feeding troughs. We now use S+ automation pieces to do what AA used to do.

Thanks therealivanisovich ill be doing this in a few minutes. I came here because I myself noticed these changes to AA. Lost interest when you can't paint vaults now. GET rid of the control panel

Painting of vaults is on the development floor.
And for the pulling of dino inv, rename them to "~" and they will be left alone. But still pullable by S+ structures if needed.

... or just temporarily turn off the console. when you're back from your hunt/tame/construction, turn it back on.

Similar issues. Oil barrels no longer function. The first thing that happened when I tried to use the control panel is that it pulled everything out of my vanilla storage boxes. De-organized my entire base in one swoop.

That's not okay. The name is, after all, "Automated Ark." It's supposed to make things easier, right? Having to shut the panel off and back on again every time you want to do something without having everything pulled out of boxes and dinos is frankly ridiculous. This is a very, very bad design.

Suggestion: Instead of pulling absolutely everything into the control panel, just put in a list of items and let people deliberately choose what they want the panel to pull. And put in a pushing option. Obviously it can identify storage boxes. If it's a control panel, you should be able to control everything from it. Select what to pull from, and what to push to.

Stop the awkwardness. And re-enable storage items that have ONE PURPOSE, which is to pull specific items to themselves. If people didn't want those items to pull, they wouldn't have built and placed them. We need working oil drums, veggie crates, and snail collectors. Please.

I should never have to re-name ANYTHING to automate it. It already has a name. The only thing that should be necessary is that everything have a unique name.

@wingedwolfpsion: Firstly, read the descript. Warns you about managing resource storages before turning on sorting. Secondly, rename structures or dinos to "~" to avoid pulling from them.
Oil Drum and Snail Collector will never come back as they were. Those were heavily open for abuse and thats game breaking.
