Safe InputOutput Containers for Crafting

Post » Tue Jul 14, 2015 7:06 am

Sorry if this has been mentioned already, I couldn't find anything about it in the Search.

I think it would make crafting more streamlined if player-owned crafting stations came with safe input and output containers. This way you could stockpile resources and crafted items safely and add/remove as necessary. It would certainly be much more organized than dumping all types of crafted items into a barrel or chest.

For example, alchemy tables would pull ingredients from a designated satchel on the table then created potions get put into a designated potions barrel beside the alchemy table. Tanning racks could pull from a Skins/Hides barrel then output to a Leathers barrel. Enchanting would need a few, one for disenchanting, maybe a soul gem container and a base weapons container, then an output one for Enchanted Weapons. Cooking Stations pull from a Raw Ingredients barrel and output to a Food Barrel. Raw Materials barrel for Forges which output to a Weapons/Armor container. And so on. They could still keep it in player inventory for those that prefer the original method, just have two options when you activate the crafting station: Inventory and Containers. This should only be an option on player-owned crafting stations.

I usually stockpile my raw materials then come back later for a mass crafting session and this would make things so much easier and more organized, at least IMO.

Are you playing on the pc? There are mods for that very thing.

If you are playing on the console, yes that would be a handy idea.

Console for the most part. I've experimented with mods on my laptop but that was a while ago and I didn't use those types of mods, but I figured they already existed on PC. I need a better computer for sure, but that's not a discussion for this thread. Just a thought I was hoping might be considered by BGS for the next iteration
