- the boxes which are nicely labeled with things like "first floor" or "backyard" etc. and then when you unpack O_O!!!

- What are you asking exactly? Edit: as noted above, unpacking a box explodes it all over your floor, if that's your concern. :)

- Yeah, not very elegant, imo. Would be nice to be able to look in the boxess and take out what you want...so you can make SDBs to put the stuff in.
  Awful, really.

- The aftermath of moving is not a pretty sight. I am definitely setting out some generic storage furniture FIRST and unpacking NEXT.

- Oh no, clicking on a floor box defaults to unpack - it's like wading through molasses after a few wrong clicks albeit a chunky seasoned variety with, in my case, just under 100,000 jars of honey blocking the view and spilling out into the back yard.

- Right, so that's sort of my question. What choices does the box give you? Is there both a wrong and a right way to unpack?
  (I'm at work and have a strict no-in-world policy that I follow)

- I opened ONE box, and it was a nightmare.
  I posted this in another thread, but what I would do differently is: go out into the world, get fresh resources, make a ton of SDBs, before you even TOUCH a moving box.
  Seriously.
  I will probably spend the next week unpacking at this rate.

- I remember Bees! Saying "Boom" in response to a question about opening the box. I figured that would happen. Waiting until I have some sdb built.

- SDB = 4 boards, 8snails, 2 metal rods

- Thanks, PANsy, you're my hero!

- Opening one is a most hilarious and awesome disaster! I really, really wish they had released furniture before migrating us so I could have made some SDBs and cabinets.

- Do we have to make them or are we able to buy them? My boards, snails and metal rods are in the moving boxes. I'm afraid to open them!

- You can buy them from people that make them for you (or the auctions I suppose), but they aren't available at any vendors.

- Oh thank the giants....I kept boards, snails and metal rods (and many other useful things I thought I *might* need) on my glitch just in case this was how the moving went. Finally, planning paid off! :-D

- I had all of my SDB making supplies within the boxes, haha.
  @TomC this is your time to make money. Lots of money.
