Refrigeration QoL Suggestions

Upgraded refrigeration.

Can we get some master knowledge for refrigeration. Freezer boxes with more storage please! I’ve been spamming improved boxes for years!

I would really like a larger fridge or some freezers. However I don’t think this is going to happen

I’m a little confused by this. Is this just a request to have less containers? Honest question, I’m not being critical here. I’m just trying to understand the use case.

But I’m also wondering if anyone is running into an issue of having to build too many because they go through perishables so fast. Which I don’t think is the case, but I’m curious if anyone does. Especially in the larger clans.

This one was a quartermaster in a clan recently (never again).
There were certain non-stacking perishables that cluttered up the ice chest.
Also, some religious harvest materials are perishable.
Mostly it is a matter of stack size or even inability to stack certain things.
Also, the multi stage cooking system comes in to play.
One chest for raw mats, one for cooked food that will later be ingredients, and one for finished products.

Part of it was a hoarding issue.
But that’s part and parcel of survival games.

This is pretty much how I do it. So when I see requests for larger storages, I get a bit confused.

For my religion items I usually put a preservation box right at the altar for convenience and separation from normal storage.

Stack sizes definitely could use a look at. And to be fair I think we need this more than higher slots (I’m not opposed to them though). Mainly because more slots means more clutter. For example I try to use vaults only when I absolutely have to. Scrolling through 200 slots sucks.

But everything stacking to 1000 for example will make sorting stuff with what we have much much easier for me. And that would make larger storages even more valuable.

Personally, I just wish that certain foods lasted longer as they would . Honey comes to mind immediately followed by salted and dried foods. So wish the base game had vinegars . If items lasted longer then much storage would be unnecessary .

Yes I would like to be able to place one box instead of 5 for the same items. It’s for efficiency. Boxes start to clutter and yea religious items and animals decay aswell so you end up putting them in the freezer and they don’t stack so will have a whole fridges of animals and altar mats. Yes I do end up hoarding i think everyone does. I’m not going to throw tier 3 food on the ground when I pick it up. Everything else has an upgrade and it makes sense to have 1 box with more space than it does to have 10 with less space.

Agree. 200 would be to many lol. But I wouldn’t complain even so.

I could only dream of 1000 stacks Lmfao I wish. If they updated stack sizes it would fix a lot of issues in the game lol.

Can I get 10,000 stack for seeds and sticks? Lmfao

And one more for the cubs :raccoon: :cat: :tiger: :pig: :rhinoceros: :polar_bear: :panda_face:

And then dye mats. And religious mats. And finished brews. And exotic meat. Nah you really need much more refrigeration space. Just my dye materials take up a large space. The berries are across the map from each other and decay. You also need them for brews.

One bin for raw mats? Lol no. 1 full bin of mats will end up reduced down to 1-2 stacks of product. Most recipes require more than one item. Generally only meat based food asks for 1 meat per item.

That sounds like pvp or private sever stuff haha.

If you don’t want to place one you don’t have to but a lot of us would benefit from having the option.

I’m okay with making berries non perishable. Also significantly increasing stack size for a lot of items as suggested before.

What on earth are you using all those for? Please don’t say for farming fish to make oil. :grimacing: you can craft oil far easier with a T3/4 alchemist. I always shake my head when I see massive fish farming operations.

Noo I mean improved fish with the stat buffs but it’s about the same. XD I’m absolutely crafting oil with alchemist! Would like larger freezer storage or stack size for foods and raw food mats. Also stack size for berries and meat specifically. Leavening and Hops also could use a 1000 stack size lol.

Does the phrase “too much” have any meaning?

Can never have enough oil, but yeah… fish traps for it are excessive. :expressionless:

No it has no meaning in a gathering game. All there is to do in survival is build and gather so idk what people think we are going to do. Spam run bosses? Nah we gather and build.

“Survive. Build. Dominate.”

Basically don’t die. Build more cool stuff (no boxes, ew!). Collect thralls.

I basically agree with you.
But boxes have at least one advantage. The purge algorithm is configured to tie it to a right angle. That is, the maximum chance that the purge will not fail and will come, and will come on the ground - is precisely in rectangular bases.

There’s no advantage to box bases in PvE. Sorry… purge doesn’t justify it. If you’re gonna face a purge, do it like a man!

I think I read about binding purge to right angles here, about 2-3 years ago … and I myself had no problems with purge only on a rectangular base.
By the way, did you seem to complain about some problems with purge?.. :thinking:
