Description

A storage bin made from planks and strengthened with iron ribbons.

Bulk storage bins are useful for two main reasons. First, you can fit more than 100 objects into them. Second, they stop all decay of objects put into them. There are two major downsides: the quality of the items you get out seem to be the average of the items you put in, similar to combining items in your inventory, and 5% of the stored items are lost per 30 days.

Notes

  • Finished bulk storage bins can not be picked up, but can be pushed, pulled, and turned like forges and ovens.
  • On failure, the plank is damaged and the ribbon is destroyed.
  • Enchants, renames, and other "special" characteristics on items put in are lost.
  • Can be secured like a large chest with a large padlock.
  • Storage bins can be used to separate large piles of combined items (e.g. woodscraps).
  • Storage bins can be used to combine leftover bits of logs, assuming they are of the same type.
  • The 'Weight' column of the bin is actually the volume, a single bin can hold 16000.
  • The model for bins will change when being half full to reflect its contents exceeding 8000 in volume.
  • Items can be dragged directly from a container to the storage bin.
  • When damaged items are placed into bins, they are instantly repaired at the cost of having their quality reduced by a percent equal to the damage. This reduced quality is used when averaging in a new item's quality into existing items in the bin.
  • Volume and Weight are not in the same proportion for different items, so some items store more efficiently in bulk storage bins than others.
