It also protects items from [[deterioration]] and removes their [[beauty]] penalty. They cannot hold chunks, minified buildings, plants, or large corpses. They slow passage, but do not block movement. This trait makes it possible for pawns to pick up/place items without actually stepping on its tile. Shelves can be reinstalled as needed. |
− | + | Their storage default setting is to contain general items at the "Preferred" priority level, but this can be changed at will, even while the shelf is still in an unfinished blueprint form. Shelves can also be "linked" together in groups to share storage settings, without the need to manually select the entire group each time. You can edit the storage/link settings for unfinished shelves. | |
− | + | The shelf's beauty depends on both the material it is built from as well as its [[quality]]. Similar to grand sculptures or beds, its beauty will be added to the underlying tile. | |

− | + | A shelf's main use is to store items. Each shelf gives thrice the storage space. They can store and "mask" many ugly items in your workstation, allow more [[meat]] into your freezer, protect weapons and mortar shells from [[deterioration]], etc. The removal of beauty penalty and their slight beauty boost make shelves convenient anywhere you want quick access to items, like medicine in a hospital. | |

Shelves can also make workers more efficient. Unlike actual storage zones, shelves allow a pawn to place or remove an item without walking on top of them. Working pawns can pick items off an adjacent shelf without needing to leave their seat, which significantly improves crafting time. This technique is best combined with "drop on floor when finished" and having other pawns restock the shelves. Even outside of workstations, not having to stand on top of the tile saves a very small amount of hauling time. | Shelves can also make workers more efficient.
