It doesn't matter where the food is in your inventory, never has. Tribbles also only breed every 1 PLAYED hour (type /played to see what your time is at). The only way to not have them eat said food is to not place tribbles in your inventory/bank with food

If you have Tribbles and Food in the same repository, i.e. your inventory, or personal bank, the tribbles will eat. It doesn't matter how many spaces you place between them. It has always been this way, and I don't see it ever changing.

Clearly this is more evidence that the Klingons are right and that Tribbles are an ecological hazard and should be erased from the galaxy.

But yes, Tribbles will eat food regardless of where they are in relation to it, as long as it is in the same inventory container (i.e. Bank/Personal) as they are.

So when are we getting a Glommer to deal with the Tribbles on the Federation Starbase?

It's not broken it's been this way for almost 3 years now. Just don't put the rotgut or romulan ale etc near tribbles.

Don't put tribbles in the same place - inventory, bank, fleet bank tab - as food. It is that simple.

This is exactly why whenever I get a random tribble from combat drops, I feed it into the replicator as soon as I get a break. And also why I don't keep food in my bank at all, whether I keep tribbles in there or not.

They are cute as pets, as long as you manage to keep them carefully away from food. Anything less, and they become a menace through no fault of their own.

That's why I have all my tribbles in my unused Boff inventories. More than enough space there as I don't trust them with hypos and shield batteries anyway.

That leaves my Inventory completely tribble free and food is out of danger until I get a chance to put it into my also tribble free bank.

The only moments when tribbles are in my inventory is when I change out Tribbles in my device slots for a few seconds.

Number of spaces should be limited to the tribbles.

I would say no more then 4 spaces.But yes they are a nuisance some times but lately they have been eating like crazy i though the timer took an hour be for they respawned another tribble be cause the thing that annoys me the most is that they are pretty much worth less.And they tend to eat stuff that is worth selling.

And i though there was like a timer on them.like an hour to make another tribble.
