Broranda Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 My apologies if this was already talked about or is already in the game.: There probably should be a way to hand pick each resource and remove it from the storage. For example, when I dig up slime or pickup contaminated dirt, it gets tossed in the storage with everything and then emits polluted oxygen. In a perfect world, I would want to be able to look at the contents of the storage and move the items that can cause pollution to another storage unit without the other stuff being touched. tldr: move items from storage on command.

thewreckedangle Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 just untick its boxes in the contents menu and set up a specific locker(s) elsewhere with just slime/polluted dirt/whatever ticked. note also the "copy settings" button which.. well,.. copies the settings to whichever lockers you drag select over (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broranda Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 I thought of this too but the slime is still an organic. So if I uncheck organic, that means nothing organic will be put in that box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masterpintsman Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Other option is to setup a storage compactor for that resource and give it a higher priority - your duplicants will then move the material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can then uncheck Polluted Dirt, Slime and Rot from it and have specific Storage with only those selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeadfootSlim Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Another option is priority. Dupes will take items from a lower-priority container to a higher-priority one, even if they have the same settings. You can use this to have an always-full container near a work site with a larger "source" stash deeper in the base, or to temporarily change priorities and hustle material from one area to another. Definitely didn't see the drop-down arrows on my first playthrough, though. Once you start using that, it's a lot easier to sort things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
