Notes

The following conditions prevent an item from being combined:

  1. An item is not in a stockpile.

  2. An item is sand or plaster.

  3. An item is rotten, forbidden/hidden, marked for dumping/melting, on fire, encased, owned by a trader/hostile/dwarf or is in a spider web.

  4. An item is part of a corpse and not butchered.

The following categories are defined:

  1. Corpse pieces, grouped by piece type and race

  2. Items that have an associated race/caste, grouped by item type, race, and caste

  3. Ammo, grouped by ammo type, material, and quality. If the ammo is a masterwork, it is also grouped by who created it.

  4. Anything else, grouped by item type and material

Each category has a default stack size of 30 unless a larger stack already exists “naturally” in your fort. In that case the largest existing stack size is used.
