Quarrys

I don't want it to be stored there, it is in a cul-de-sac. I'd like to at least have it stored someplace closer to where it's going to get used, on the other side of the river maybe.

I can see what you mean. Your vendors will carry a certain amount across to stock in the market but you may need more than that.

Nah, man, markets don't stock stone. If I had TPs I'd drag it with the traders, but I'm going for Isolationist.

Forgot again. I should remember since this has bitten me more than once.

[irrelevant]

I tore down all my little extraneous stockpiles, and so the laborers are bringing the stone to this stockpile here by the bridge. I can live with that.

Wow, 3000 stone in a quarry (60 stone taken, 98% remains), that makes it sorta worthwhile.

[Pangaea]

That's quite a bit -- but on the other hand, it's only enough for 75 stone houses. I suppose if one were to be self-supplied with stone on a large map, one would need to have these ugly quarries all over the place

[slink]

Or 65 stone houses, one market, one blacksmith, one cemetery, one chapel, one tailor, and two schools.

[irrelevant]

Well, on this small mountainous map it's going to have to be enough not only for ~100 houses (which all are going to be wooden), but also for schools, markets, and barns, and for foresters, gatherers, hunters, herbalists, fishers and mines, and for hospitals, cemeteries, and wells (to counteract the happiness detraction of the quarry and the mines) and a town hall and eventually for 3-5 TPs. So I'm going to have to be frugal.

There is some surface stone and iron left, but not enough to rely on for much except for the initial few structures in any given area.

That's interesting, I have not experienced any difficulty in getting my stone put into storage; maybe that's because my laborers outnumber my stonecutters.

I solved by placing the blacksmith next to mine ..
he collects the iron that serves him from the stack that the miners back side of the entrance to the mine ..

[irrelevant]

Wow, so you can at will switch a producing mine back and forth between iron and coal??

[slink]

You sure can, and the total output is the same regardless of which you mine.  So, you can't mine 3000 iron and then go back for the 3000 in coal that you left behind (or however much it is, total).
