Allow rotten seems useless

[Gazma]

The check for allow rotten seems to be useless. If I set my stockpile or anything to allow rotten, it wouldn't work. I have to set it with animal or human corpses too. But then by setting this, The guys will kept bringing the good corpse there to be cremated, or put in the outdoor stockpiles.
Just notice that over 15 hunted animals were delivered to the outdoor stockpiles that I want to store my rotten animal. From this about 10 already get rotten and 3 more in less than a day. Damn! Wasted all my good meat.

Is this a bug or is it intended to be so.

Also what about animal bones? Because of the useless of rotten function I got a few animal bones in my base now. Is it possible to make it so that I can cremate these bones too? Don't want go making coffin for all the useless bone.

What you can do is lower the priority of the stockpile for your "junk" (or raise the priority in the good ones) so your pawns will prioritize the good stockpiles first.

Make sure the 'allow rotten' is unchecked in your good stockpiles so if the meat happens to go bad it will be hauled to the junk pile.

I believe you are able to cremate bones.

Waht i do is i have a freezer animal stockpile set to normal or high priority and do not allow rotten
Then i have another stockpile for garbage by my crematory/incinerator set to low priority and allow rotten.

Any dead animals will be brought to the freezer adn preserved. If power is lost and some carcasses spoil they will be immediately removed and transferred to the low priority stockpile, assuming they are not forbidden.

The only defect with the system is if i kill something and my freezer is full pawns will bring it to the low priority stockpile but if you look at your freezer periodically  and it looks full you can deal with this how you see fit by buiding another freezer or selling meat or butchering more or transferring low meat carcasses like squirrels and rabbits out

I always make a burn chamber with stockpile for corpses,  bad clothing,  ect,  and every once in a while toss a molotov at it. More tine efficient,  and heats the base

you can burn all rotten in crematorium but you have to be careful so they don't start burning freshly hunted animals, also i prefer mending clothes and selling them then burning them or reclaiming the fabrics but thats with mods xD
