Destroy on empty

Yeah, so the way it’s supposed to work is if ‘destroy on empty’ is checked, the item gets destroyed when all of its resources are used. In your video, the potion had its one resource used up and then its quantity was reduced by 1 because it was destroyed.

You’ve seen in other areas that obsidian does not enforce remaining charges or quantity to prevent an item’s use. Some people just prefer the sheet doesn’t get in their way but I know other people would prefer a more ‘strict’ mode.

The reason it stays at zero instead of being removed from the sheet is because some people prefer to keep consumables there at 0 quantity as a placeholder. If they go to stock up later, they can just set the quantity instead of recreating the item.

These sorts of behaviours I plan to add as options later so people can customise how the sheet works for them.
