− | Three things that don't really work. What does seem to work, is using the forbid settings in a stockpile. I deleted any stockpile that could possibly complicate things and made one single stockpile to take all of my mixed up bins. In my case, this means ammo/weapons/armor all in one stockpile. All the idle dwarves quickly hopped to the task and the bins were quickly all in one stockpile. Next, I create a new stockpile, for a small test I used a stockpile to take nothing but trap components. Going back to my big mixed up stockpile, I forbid trap components and watch to see what the dwarves do. The effect is immediate. The dwarves once again leap to the task and yank any trap components out of the bins and resort them into the new stockpile. Finally seeing success, I get a bit more selective and create two more stockpiles, one for usable metal armor, one for unusable metal armor. Going back to the mix pile, I forbid all metal armors and wait. The dwarves leap to the task | + | Three things that don't really work.

A method that seems to actually work for separating troublesome objects from existing bins. [[User:Doctorzuber|Doctorzuber]] 17:27, 17 March 2010 (UTC) |
