Thread: Concerning Garva's New Challenge and Resource Containers

I have a good idea for my entry, but it requires a lot of resource containers. Of course I thought of the split command on resource stacks. Well if you drop the same kind resource in the same room as another stack, it goes into the stack. So there's no way really to get enough mineral containers to do what I want, besides going out and trying to buy 14325 different stacks of minerals.

Is there a way to make it not stack?

I don't think same resources stack in the same room as long as you don't drop it in the same place, take a step or two everytime you drop - I could be wrong but I think this would work. In any case, there is no structure that could contain 14325 items in it anyway.


Here's an interesting tidbit (I think still works), you can seta harvester to mine whatever (preferrably a low %) and have it harvest. Open the hopper and when it shows ResourceName 0, retrieve it. You'll get a generic resource stack in your inventory of some kind with absolutely no stats and would have a name like "Minerals" or some such thing.

I tried doing this with a project I was doing not so long ago. Even though I was in a seperate room of the structure, the conatiners still stacked. Although the idea of pulling the "generic" containers from harvestors might work. I had never tried that one, but will have to remember it next time I need it
