Stacking for meals

[starlight]

Meals should stack in groups of more than one.
Otherwise stockpiles quickly fill up only with meals.

Only if something like this is added...

Hm, that could be a buildable furniture, then, like weapon racks, yes?

That would be the idea, yes, covering a 1x1 tile. I think a 10 meal capacity is a nice number, it's low enough that it doesn't just become a bottomless pit for meals, but large enough to be many times more convenient for food storage. A couple of these near the eating areas would likely be more than enough for your averaged sized colony.

I like the idea. Expandable on request.

While we are at it, what about containers for the rest of the stuff: bins, barrels, pots, bags, and the lot.

Would like to see a comprehensive set of containers rather than just one.
That lets you keep stockpiles, and the stuff in containers in the stockpiles.

(Very, very DF perspective......)

There's an existing thread with some different ideas thrown around.
