There are a bunch more workshops that can benefit from being "lockable".

| + | |||
| + | Let's say you are digging far away from your fortress and come across a vein of bituminous coal. What's the most efficient way of capitalizing on the fuel? | ||
| + | |||
| + | The first thing that comes to mind is to haul the coal from the vein directly to the smelter. With each haul, your dwarves are bringing approximately 3 coke worth of fuel back to the fortress. However, there is a more efficient way: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Build a smelter near the coal vein. | ||
| + | * Smelt all the coal into coke. | ||
| + | * Set up a fairly large custom stockpile nearby that accepts coke only. Make sure you have lots of bins. | ||
| + | * Set up another 1-2 tile custom stockpile near a workshop you need fuel for. Make it just like the last one, only its only holds bins with at least 10 blocks in them. | ||
| + | * Set up another fairly large custom stockpile near a workshop you need fuel for. Make it just like the last one, but with no minimum requirement. | ||
| + | * Set up the first stockpile to feed into the second stockpile. | ||
| + | * Set up the second stockpile to feed into the third stockpile. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you set things up properly, the setup should function like this: | ||
| − | + | - Coke accumulates in stockpile #1 until a bin becomes full. | |
| + | - Since the bin is full, a dwarf moves it to stockpile #2. | ||
| + | - Since stockpile #2 feeds into stockpile #3, the dwarf who moved the bin to stockpile #2 should move it to stockpile #3 immediately after he reaches stockpile #2. | ||
| − | + | This gives you an effective hauling capacity of 10 coke per haul, which is more than triple what you would get with the standard method. The only caveat is that you must have strong item haulers. If your haulers aren't strong enough, you could consider making the maximum bin capacity be less than ten in stockpile #1, and lower the minimum requirement in stockpile #2 accordingly. | |
