Stone chunks will not be moved automatically, even from a home area, and must be manually designated by the player to be hauled. They can be hauled to any stockpile with the appropriate settings, however dumping stockpile zones default settings include rock chunks. | Stone chunks will not be moved automatically, even from a home area, and must be manually designated by the player to be hauled.

− | == | + | ==Analysis== |
− | + | Despite the objects made of the resultant stone blocks having different HP based on which stone type is used, all rock chunks have the same amount of HP. However, they do have different masses. Granite has a mass of 25, limestone with a mass of 22, marble with a mass of 25, sandstone with a mass of 20 and slate with a mass of 18. Thus, if stone chunks must be transported, such as when transporting stone to a colony in a [[biome]] with low stone supplies like Ice Sheets, it can be advantageous to chose Slate over other stone types, despite the inferior stats of the [[slate blocks|end product]]. Note that stone chunks weigh the same as the blocks they are cut into, so barring remainders, they are just as efficient to transport in either form but it may be advantageous to do the stonecutting at the colony where [[tool cabinet]]s, [[armchair]]s, [[food]] and other luxuries can more easily be provided. | |
− | + | Chunks provide decent [[cover]] (50% as opposed to a tree's 25% or sandbags' 57%). Together with the fact they are omnipresent on natural maps, they are useful in firefights and will be used by the AI. Considering they can be easily hauled, it is a good idea to remove them from places the enemy could use and form your own makeshift barricades with them - whether when attacking enemy settlements or defending against raiders. | |
