empty storage

[Gwido]

Maybe it was already asked, but I just wonder why there's no option to ask duplicants to empty storage.

Currently, the only way is to unchecked all material stored. And then re-checked what we want.

maybe setting max. kg to 0?

havent tried, but might work.

No. It's just prevent dupes from storing more material.

there's some kind of storage-building that drops its contents when given a logic signal. (automaton).

And with no wire connected it just keeps dropping it on the ground.

Since we can already empty with unselecting all items and then selecting them again, we really should have an empty button, which doesn't require dupe interaction. It would be a nice QoL addition, which I can quickly imagine decent use cases for. In fact I tend to miss it in most early games.

That's what I though of.

I mean, sometimes you want it to drop stuff on the ground. It`s useful for that. Also drops one tile from the building so you can use it to drop ice into a water pool.
