"Hide" stockpile?

[The Man with No Name]

What does the "Hide" stockpile option do?

I had thought it might mean that colonists ignore the stockpile and not haul stuff to it, but it appears to have no effect in this regard.

You disable the visual indicator with this feature. (The transparent color in the background)

Thanks. So not a very notable button then.

I hope that pun was intentional because you've just made an enemy for life with it

Unintentional. I pun in italics.

I use hidden stockpiles (which accept nothing) to cover the floor of production rooms. This means anything that gets dropped on the ground still gets tallied towards the stockpile amount.

That gives me the idea to make a big crafting room with all bills being drop on floor and then use the industrial rollers mod to suck everything onto a belt .
