Feeders and collectors oh my!

Yeah... I don't remember if there was ever a posting on if you can stack feeders and collectors rite on one another and have them work rite.So if anyone knows if you can or not  or can point me to a handy link that would be most awesome. Reason being I have 32 pigs on my street and need to make some space with stacking if I can. Thanks all:D

  • Some people have had success with them being right on top of each other and other people have not had success with it. But you can drop them just a hair (some people have said 1 pixel to get technical) off of each other, and I think that keeps any issues from cropping up.

  • The definitely fill from left to right on the street, so I can see how stacking them exactly on top of one another (if that was even possible) might cause problems.

  • Feeders, yes. Collectors, no.

  • I drop one, take a small step or two then drop another and continue on with all my collectors/feeders that way. They're not stacked and don't take up as much room as having them all completely separated.

  • Well from what I gather then Is feeders will and can function stacked and collectors have to have at least some amount of separation. Awesome Thanks to those that responded!

  • I put em on the roof of my house, but yes make them a few pixel off and you should be dandy.
    ETA: More than 4 collectors and you may run into a slowdown in collecting. There's a whole other forum post with the math neatly explained (if anyone happens to remember the title it would be awesome)

  • I have 10 collectors, with no issues

    I believe that occasionally this means that they miss a collections, but it is not noticeably detrimental to the amount of meat I collect

  • I found that three or four collectors fill MUCH slower than two, it's somewhat annoying that two will fill in about four hours overnight causing wastage but three won't quite make it in eight hours.
