Big Stone Chest Route
大型石箱路线
Big Stone Chest is the stone-based 70-slot upgrade. Its recipe is bought from the Dwarf after the Stone Chest recipe is unlocked through Robin's Resource Rush.
Special Orders / Robin's Resource Rush and Stone Chest recipe
Stone Chest Prerequisite
石箱前置条件
Stone Chest comes from Robin's Resource Rush, where Robin asks for a large Wood or Stone collection. Completing it unlocks the Stone Chest recipe that later gates Big Stone Chest access.
Mechanics / Replace regular or stone chests while keeping contents
Upgrade Without Emptying
无需清空升级
Big Chest and Big Stone Chest can be used on regular or stone chests to replace them while preserving contents and dropping the old chest, making storage upgrades much less painful.
Layout / 20 colors, route zones, sheds, and farm work lanes
Color Coding and Layout
颜色与布局
Big chests keep the color picker behavior, so storage can be organized by route: crops, fish, mining, gifts, cooking, artisan machines, Ginger Island, and request stockpiles.
Materials / Wood, Copper Bars, Stone, buildings, and machines
Storage Resource Economy
仓储材料经济
Big storage competes with buildings, machines, crafting, and farm expansion. The best route upgrades a few critical chests first, then scales into sheds and deeper material lanes.
