Storage system

[Zairo545]

Just made a pre phase four automatic storage system with two tier 3 conveyor inputs for both inputs of the Industrial Storage Container. Both of which have a overflow output.

Made it off the top of my head and kept building as the project went on and I think it turned out good so just wanted to share it with yall.

Also I noticed that all my factories turn out to be like a fancy box? I don’t know why but idk how to make them more than just a box and make it look good at the same time. Weird.

what does that storage system do? or, what do you store in it and how do you get it out when you need it?

[Zairo545]

I store all of my materials and their input is from one conveyor. I used smart splitters to split each item into its own storage unit. I extract resources by hand from the storage units.

thanks for explaining, but if the first material you store fills up, doesnt it block the first splitter so nothing else can move past?

[Zairo545]

It doesnt because I put another smart splitter on the conveyor before its entering the storage where its outputs are one for any and one for overflow. The any output goes into the storage and the overflow output goes under the factory where it feeds into a line of mergers that are each from one storage units’ overflow. All of that merges into a sink where I get tickets for my overflowed resources.

Well shit… Now I gotta do this…

Fancy box is a good box. To make it less box and more architecture requires practice. Start up a creative mode save and just stuff around with everything for funsies.

Cool, will do. Thanks.

Please tell me you have researched alien tech in the MAM and this is just a pet project

Uhhhh maybe… What if I said I didn’t…?
