→Thanks for the input: new section
Also, there is a chart on the bulk storage bin page, is the format not acceptable or something?
== Thanks for the input ==
I used liter because it was my starting point in my research, and because L is easier than cubic decimeter or dm^3. There is no in-game mention of units for volume, so it's kind of up to us to decide how to call it. You do have a point about its being confusing with solid objects, perhaps a sentence to clarify that it can also apply to solids would help. I still prefer liters because they are simpler once you get over that hump.
While density is kind of an advanced concept, I think it's important, as it helps players make better use of bulk bins and other containers. I think it's useful info! But not a high priority for newbies to learn, so your idea of a notice/warning to that effect is good.
The use of division in your example over-complicates things, and assumes that the container only carries one kind of item. The 100 item limit on non-bulk-bins is not relevant to this article except for example item limits in a table like those in the article [[container]].
Yes, I know there's already a table in [[bulk storage bin]], I'm the one who added the weight and weight/volume columns. There is also the useful table in [[container]]. I'd still like to see a unified table by item with all possible items, maybe with an additional column for what bulk/other-size containers they fit into. So maybe this page is bad place for that, and that would be a separate project.
