could we have higher level crafting of larger size storage items at some stage? 32 slots would be nice. obviously they would be large items when placed down. some kind of rationalisation of the items to their storage size would be good too. eg large crate has 16 slots just like chests which look a quarter of the size. perhaps all chests should be 9 slots, crates 16 and wardrobes and other large items 32? i've already hoarded so many decorative items and armors/clothes, it'd be nice to keep them all nicely organised in one storage place each... thanks
Agreed. There's currently no reason other than aesthetics to use the larger containers since they all hold the exact same amount.
yeah, considering there are atleast ten different sizes of containers (in terms of how much terain they take up) having them all be 9 or 16 (or at least all I've found so far) seems kinds dumb. also the two-space wide chests and the 3 space wide chests holding the same amount doesn't make sense either. Since the small chests are 2 wide 1.5 high, they should be 9 (3 wide 3 high) Large chests are 3 by 1.5, so they should be 12 (4 wide 3 high screen); same height as a small chest but a bit wider. Small (3 x 2) crates should be 16, (4 wide 4 high screen) since they're a little taller than the big chests. Large crates (4 x 3) should be 25, (5 wide 5 high screen) Special containers (furniture and stuff) should be proportional to their dimensions, but capped at 32.
I hope this is added. I got so excited when I found a good supply of Large Chests that I filled my storage room with them, only to find out that they are less efficient than regular chests (I never open chests I find, I just break them lol).
Storage space proportional to size is a pretty reasonable idea! It doesn't completely address the problem though. I know there are more than 32 types of item in most of the categories I've been using to organize my stuff, and there's scores of different kinds of block. Maybe something like this might help?
well i mainly said capped at 32 because i don't want the ship locker to be made entirely redundant by a container with 100 slots, but i suppose there are other options. ...hmmm... just thought of something but i'm going to need to find the sprites of all the containers first...
there is a good mod for this, it makes a dubble wide and triple wide chests that hold more than 2 or 3 chests would normaly by themselves. but you need a number of the same kind of chests or have to spend several pixals on printing one
um, no, most of those are just the icons... also that list is incomplete. i meant the in-world sprites. thanks for trying though.
Oh shoot, I didn't realize they didn't have the in world sprites, I figure each page would have the correct in game sprite. If you want help on that though, I'll help dig through the install files for them.
