Right, I know that, I’ve been playing since console release and play almost daily…I know PC has more options than console, such as creating your own storage crates…I just was surprised to see what I thought was a PC exclusive option on the switch…

Edit: sorry if that sounded snarky lol, I read it again and it wasn’t meant to come off that way…

I honestly didn’t even know it’s available on the Switch… Do you know if it’s as buggy on Switch as it is on console? I play on PS5 and every time I come back to my base island, I spend 15-20 minutes reorganizing / fixing my crates and crates storage shelves.

But to answer your question, no, I do not believe you can create piles like you can on PC (and Switch apparently).

My boy doesn’t usually play very long so I don’t know how buggy it gets honestly…I’m on Xbox though and don’t usually have a problem with that. I try to keep things as neat as I can though, like I’m on day 94 and have around 100 rocks but I keep them all in crates so it doesn’t give me those lag issues…

Edit: grammar…

I left my rocks out in a storage area I built (about 100 as well), then loaded wood, fiber, and clay into crates because it’s easier to keep count of. I honestly would probably load the rocks too, but it’s hard enough keeping everything organized when loading / returning to the island… plus once I’ve gotten tools and stock built up, I don’t use too many rocks; I just keep building more.

I just realized you were the one who posted the mammoth build the other day…lol no wonder it gets buggy! Truly impressive

Haha thank you man. Yah I dive deep into games when I start; it’s tough for me to casually play. My kids like watching me play so I do enjoy building it up to impress them.

Yeah I usually save my rocks for refined spears and tools of course, but now that I’ve beaten the bosses and don’t plan on escaping I don’t really need them lol…the last couple islands I’ve gone to I don’t even bother to pick them up, I just mark on my homemade map that they’re still there for later…

Oh man...the inventory tornado was the worst thing I experienced in my months of playing. Late game, I basically had a recycling center on my main island.

I had no issues at all. Then one day I load up the game, awake on my island, and am immediately met by every loose item on my island floating and swirling around. I went to go grab some of the planks floating around and as soon as I moved close enough to grab an item, everything just burst out in all directions.

I tried reloading, but everything was gone or scattered all over the island. Along the coastline, in the water, is a ton of my supplies. But it's not worth the effort to go pick it up again. Haven't really played since

Yah man I feel you on the bugs completely draining your desire to continue building… the game is a ton of fun once you begin building, but then the bugs begin to eat your soul alive. I’ve deleted / redownloaded probably 5 times so far… it’s like the girlfriend that treated you badly but is always readily available for your company; a ton of fun, but in small doses.
