Storage Organization || Copy/Pasting

In games I tend to like my storage set mostly the same regardless of workbench and thought that it would be useful if there was some sort of copy paste feature to reorganize storages to match each other. I know there are different ranges for storages so it would never be identical but something that would at least try to follow the order that was copied with ones falling off the range being removed and new ones in the range listing at the bottom would be a nice way around that.

Copy Storage Settings between Tables

It would be nice to be able to copy the storage settings of a table over to identical tables you have duplicates of. For example, if you've got 8 campfires going it would be nice not to need to reorganize all eight to the same thing.

Copy/paste storage order and settings

When you have multiple tables of same type, you generaly want to use same order of storages for products/inputs. Would be nice to have a way to copy the settings from table to table. Especialy when you build new inventories and you want them to be prioritized, its get realy frustrating moving them around in all tables.

Storage order and preference should definitely be remembered across work tables and whatnot. I

having to reorder them for every. single. table. and. storage.Scott Cameron
I sort my storages differently per crafting table. In campfires I have iceboxes and silos at the top and stockpiles at the bottom. I almost NEVER want to see power storages in crafting tables.
Why would I EVER want my carpentry table to suck logs out of my campfire power? If I had a tick box for categories of storage and could sort them by name or tag it would help enormously!
You could have 3 categories of storage:
- Power / utility storage (like consumables for campfires, gas for vehicles, etc.)
- Main storage - chests
- Main storage - stockpiles
You could also have tags for each storage - either with user-definable tags or pre-defined ones or both (preferably). You could make tags that would filter storage with keywords like:
- Cooking (applied to raw food storages like iceboxes and chests)
- Masonry (applied to chests and stockpiles)
- Tailoring (applied to chests and stockpiles)
And so-on...
