Beta 11.3 - By Popular Request
This update is a long time coming and I'll admit, I've pushed against doing this for a long time, despite the fact that it has come up more than a few times.
Today's build combines the storehouse resources and the resources in your backpack when checking to see if you can build a structure or craft an item. So no more having to go back to the storehouse to get that one piece of leather or dropping off wood to place a new building! The system removes items from your backpack first and then from the storehouse if more are needed.
Note the town UI will continue to only display the amount of resources in the storehouse and the inventory UI only displays what's in your backpack. Dwarves who use resources to make things for the town, such as the Carpenter, will continue to only use resources from the Storehouse. However, the crafting and building UI will update based on the combined amounts when determining whether to show the amount needed in red or green.
This update also adds the new resources to the resource tracking UI.
After playing with the system for a while I have to say...you all were right. This is so much better! Humble pie actually tastes pretty good when it leads to something more fun. :)
So, thank you again everyone for your feedback and support!
