b19 any chance?

I enjoyed all the different shelves for various goods and I am missing them on B18. :(

B18 PLZ

Would love to see this updated, it's pretty.

Hey when you have the chance can you work on it for Beta 18?

I think "CanOverlapZones=false" prevents you from putting a stockpile over a shelf and having two items/stacks occupy the same tile

I strongly suspect vanilla has the canOverlapZones tag set to false so if you have a shelf that is set to accept medicine, and it is in your freezer and happens to be in a zone that is set to accept meat, you do not end up with meat dripping on your medicine.

(For the record, I would prefer shelves that accept the zone over their own settings, but that is neither here nor there ;) )

Omega13: I love that idea.

Random suggestion: I love these shelves, but it would be very cool if you could rename them. For instance, rename a shelf "Herbal Medicine" so you could see what's supposed to be in it even if it's currently empty without needing to root through the stockpile settings.

"Vanilla also now has a "canOverlapZones" (false) tag. Not entirely sure why, but I assume it's important, so I applied that too."

When true, stockpile zones can exist in the same tiles as the furniture. Seeing as the shelves have a built in zone, they clearly can have a different on top of them.

@Chromeplate: yeah, spoiling still happens, just like it would if you left a raw chicken sit out on your own kitchen counter for days. You can use them to organize your refrigerated pantry, though.

@Charonx: you're welcome!

BTW: Tammabanana, thanks for the mod, subscribed to it (I always need more neat stuff in my kitchen)

@ChromePlate: The Rimfridge mod offered a fridge (duh) that freezes items and thus prevents spoilage (and gives a cool beer a tiny "cold one" positive moodlet) - unfortunate it is not updated for A17 yet :(

Room tempature still spoils stuff when on it?

@gui.pellin: Both the "medicine cabinet" and the "general shelving" can hold beer, but neither will default to it.

Can we store beer in it?

OK, I do not really like it... Sorry. But it's much faster to use stools to cook than thoses. Wich is a shame because I like the design a lot!

Tip : Make it so the colonist don't need to walk over it to reach the food (like stools at hand height, almost instant take and cook). and to compromise for the cost of the product add a 2X stack size, wich let the cook work for longer without help of crazy haulers.

It's all good -- I didn't think it'd be possible, but didn't hurt to ask.

@someonesneaky: I'm sorry, I don't see name changing anywhere in the XML. :(

@Pyro42: See first sentence of the existing description.. These are based on the vanilla equipment rack, just with different storage filters. They're made of what the equipment rack is made of; they handle beauty in the same way the equipment rack does.

@Kai: yes, modding the vanilla equipment rack would be easy - but it would be incompatible with every other mod that also edits the vanilla equipment rack.

If not, then no worries! It's still great for organization, which makes my inner packrat very happy.

We need more infos on this page.
1. Cost and usable ressources for thoses shelves
2. Any beauty change? (it should as it gets everything hidden/ordered)

It should be a way to store materials without the negative beauty debuff. It would have a reason to be, a very good reason to be!

@Angry Hoovy: That's one of Telkir's from MoreFloors - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=725623521&searchtext=morefloors

@Someonesneaky: Ummmmmm, I haven't seen that function in the XML. I'll look, but I doubt it.

Out of curiosity, do you think you might be able to put in a way to rename the shelving, similar to how we can rename stockpiles?

what es flooor mod

Ah well, was worth asking.

@Jigain: Alas - I think that'd be the same code, just with different numbers.

What can be interesting, is if you can store multiple items in a single tile, in things like 'vaults' and the likes. These sort of objects aren't automated to grab so you'd have to order a pawn to withdraw them specifically, making them handy for rare items you don't want them to fiddle with.

A little unfortunate that 'extendedstorage' mod didn't go alpha 16, so this is the closest thing for it.

It's a bit annoying that there aren't equipment racks that's basically made compatible with 'all items' in the game, without the 'beauty' penalty.

Heck the simplest, easiest tweak is modding the original equipment rack to be able to filter through more items, resulting in pawns using them for more than just equipments, without needing to create 10x the object with different coloring and such.

OMG! How did I go so long without this mod in my life. My medicines are no longer piled in a corner, my prepared meals are off the floor and my hops/wort are neatly stacked next to the brewing table. Thank you!!

You know, I'd really enjoy an actual fridge rather than a freezer (which seems to be what Rimfridge is all about), so that I can put a less power-hungry, constant +5 degrees Celsius fridge in the dining room. A place in which food lasts significantly longer than just leaving it out, but that doesn't stop spoiling. No other effects. Would that still require C#?

Thank you very much! I would like to note that there haven't been any problems using this with the Stack XXL mod by Indeed. Combined they provide very compact and efficient storage solutions.

@Deagroth: Fair point; I hadn't bothered picking categories to default it to. I've now set it to default to Manufactured, Raw Resources, and Items; all the other categories are either held by more specific racks, or are the undesirables like chunks/corpses.

Is there any way to prevent the "general shelving" from accepting all corpses by default when made? This has been extremely helpful in organizing my storage otherwise, thank you! No more partial piles of resources laying about taking up extra room.

@Tammabanana -- It's not exactly *bad*, per se. But even a single step takes time (roughly one second); compounded with large work orders, that time adds up, and your chef ends up being tied to his work station longer. Cutting the time it takes to work will free them up sooner to do other things, as well as making sure food is ready faster.

Stockpiles on the floor do the same thing, requiring a step to pick up the materials. But, if you place a stool on the stockpile, the stack of food / materials are basically elevated off the floor and into arm's reach. Your chef doesn't have to move from the crafting spot at all, just grabs the goods and chain-cooks.

@Midstorm That... is the perfect emoticon for this circumstance.

@Tammabanana

@Midstorm: The function involves C#, which I don't know how to write or edit; I'm sorry. We're really best off if Vendan or some C#-savvy volunteer updates RimFridge itself.

@someonsneaky ...one step is bad? I guess I misunderstood, then, I'm sorry! I've never really fully experimented with the stool+stockpile thing. It fundamentally bugged me to have the food in piles on the floor to begin with.

rimfridge hasn't been updated not sure when or if its going to is there a way to make this mod so food etc dont spoil ?

Update, 12/21/2016: you're awesome, and thank you! :)
happy holidays, little colonists, you're getting new furniture....

@Tammabanana -- I tried this as an alternative to the stockpile + stool for setting up kitchens. You say they won't walk to the storage containers while cooking, but I tried both the counter and the single-space food cache, and my chef had to step to each one to pick up the materials. This makes cooking slower than the stools, so unless you can adjust the counter settings to avoid that extra step, it's still better to stick with the old way.

It's still a nifty idea, though. I'll definitely keep it for other resources, like keeping cloth by the tailor and such!

@Delmain: oops, sorry I missed you! Yes, they'll turn around and just pick up the next ingredient off the counter - if the recipe was set to drop the completed meal on the floor, or probably if another counter set to accept the meal is also right beside the cook. But if the cook has to walk to get to the "best storage" for the meal, they'll do that, and then for the next meal, they'll pick up the closest ingredient to where they're standing right then.

Lately I've been tending to put a row of ~6 counters for vegetables and other long-lasting stuff to the left of my stove, and 1-2 on the right for the meats/eggs I want to use up first, and the counter they put the meals on is on the right, too. So they don't walk far, drop off the meal, and pick up the meat on the way back to cook the next meal.

Update! Added CuproPanda's 1x1 racks.

@Darkmind: Yes, still rots. RimFridge will cover the spoilage, when it gets A16'd.

does it rot in it?

It was a pain to set up two 1x1 stockpiles and the fiddle with them. This looks better too.

@Joel - I'm glad it helps! I was SO MAD at how long colonists would take to go back and forth from storage rooms...

@Carcosa - I second Synaptic's rec for Rimfridge; it's exactly what you're looking for. I don't know when it will be A16'd either, though.

@Synaptic - nope, this doesn't hold drugs, just the "Food" category. I think there are some other racks out there already that will hold whatever, though I'm not sure which are A16'able yet.

One of CuproPanda's mods had some various racks - one food, one medicine, one universal, I think - but CP hasn't been able to update mods for a while. (Life.) Maybe I'll take a stab at pulling those racks out and updating them. And stick drugs on the "medicine" one? Though the universal ought to hold it anyway...

Not tonight, though.

Speaking of which, will this hold completed drugs? I don't think they need to be refrigerated but they do deteriorate.

@Carcosa - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=780996548 <-Rimfridge. I just wish it held more drugs. Not for A16 yet I don't think but hopefully soon?

Does this work the same as using stools so that cooks don't have to move to pick up the food? IE if you put these next to the cook, will they stand in one place, grabbing and cooking without moving?

Can you add power, and cooling? Small fridge would be sweet.

Something so small.... Something that means so much....
