Zombie Supplier Station

A Zombie Supplier Station is where a zombie waits to fetch and carry for the other zombies in the same room. When a zombie at a workbench runs short of materials, the supplier brings them from the room’s open chests; when a workbench has finished goods, the supplier takes them away to the nearest chest with room. Without a supplier, a workbench zombie never fetches anything itself. It costs 4 Wooden Planks and 4 Bronze Nails and comes with Zombie Assistant (35 red, 5 green), which follows Tool Rack.

It can be built in your yard, in the writing room under the house, in the tower laboratory, in the vineyard cellar and at the quarry, from each place’s build desk. A small one for inside your house comes separately, from the house’s build desk, with Kitchen II (50 green, 10 blue).

Notes

  • It only works inside its own room. Orders never cross from one area to another, so each room with working zombies needs its own supplier.
  • The materials must be in an open chest in that room, not in your backpack; a delivery waits until there is enough in stock.
  • Taking finished goods away comes first, before bringing new materials.
  • Picking up from a chest takes the zombie 2 seconds, and several suppliers queue at the same chest.
  • The factory does not need one: its belts feed the machines.
