Stacks of Organs

[SpaceDorf]

I was just wondering, why aren't organs, bodyparts and their bionic replacements not stackable ?

Well thank you, you are having way to much fun with those Storages.

I thought first reaction would be something like this : 

Code Select Expand


<ThingDef Name="Simple" ParentName="BodyPartBase" Abstract="True">
<tradeTags>
<li>SimpleProstheses</li>
</tradeTags>

<stackLimit>75</stackLimit>

<thingCategories>
<li>SimpleProstheses</li>
</thingCategories>
<statBases>
<DeteriorationRate>2.0</DeteriorationRate>
</statBases>
</ThingDef>


But honestly, I meant the question. Why do you think it is that way ?

My money is on "Those things are intended to be scarce, thus we don't really care about stackability".

Sounds reasonable, the same way weapons and clothes are not stackable.
But Organs are much smaller, extremities less so, ..
