I'm hoping the TC chefs can enlighten me on some crate/container related questions (sorry if this was answered elsewhere, but couldn't find any info)
1.Can you make crates of any container size? For example, crates containing 25 small glasses, 25 casks, etc?Or does it work another way?
2. Do each of thesecontainer sizeshave different artwork so it's easy to tell them apart in your inventory?
3. Is it easy to see how many uses are in each finished container or crate?
4. If I had a hundred bottles of beer on the wall, and one of those barrels should happen to fall, what would happen?

Do each of these container sizes have different artwork so it's easy to tell them apart in your inventory?Yes, Small glass looks like the old alcohol Or Ruby Bliel. Large Glass, like Tatooine sunburn. Cask, Like Starshine Surprise. And Barrel, I think a locked container (or like a metal barrel)3. Is it easy to see how many uses are in each finished container or crate?It's displayed on the icon (like before) as well as in the examine window4. If I had a hundred bottles of beer on the wall, and one of those barrels should happen to fall, what would happen?I'm not sure, I haven't tested it, but I believe it would make baby jesus cry.![]()

Does this mean drink-stack-size-not-displaying-on-schematics/crates-bug is fixed?

I know the quantity definitely shows up during experimentation (a godsend by itself), I haven't done any factory runs to verify for sure that schematic/crates contain this information.

Every crate I made so far has had the quantity listed.

do we still need to buy crates from other crafters to make crated goods? I read somewhere that this was so, but no one seems to be talking about it. What porfessions make these crates? what resources are used in thier creation?
Thanks in advance

Crates are made automatically in factories when you do a factory run using a pre-made schematic (either that you did yourself or someone else did). You just put the schematic into your food factory, put the required ingredients into the hopper and start it off.
Once finished (manually stopped by yourslef/an admin) everything in the output hopper is crates maxed up to 25 units per crate (and each unit has X number of uses). You don't purchase crates from anyone nor make them outside of the factory run.

thanks. I already knew that. but appreciate the response. I was referring to a post I saw on this forum somewhere about having to buy crates of creates in the future! meaning with the patch, crates would become a prepared and consumable item. I thought that this wasn't the case, or wouldn't make it to live. But, then I might have misread as well. In any case, if it is same old on live post patch, I am happy with that. Thanks again

Oh, I remember that now. It was when someone was going through the number of factory runs required for crates of barrels, and they had one too many. Someone ::cough::me::cough:: pointed out the error, then someone else joked about how it wasn't actually wrong, the first poster just included the factory run of "crates" that had to be done to put the barrels in.
Don't worry, crates are still made automatically when you do a factory run.

jeebus don't give them any ideas! They will have us making crates by themselves lol
