Silos
The intention of this section is to show you what each type of silo is used for and what each one can hold.
I'll start with a general description:
- Silo - This is used mainly for moon harvesting and linking with reactors
- Catalyst Silo - Used for storing Biohazards
- General Silo - Used for storing general trade items.
- Hazardous Chemical Silo - Used for storing Boosters
- BioChemical Silo - Used for storing Gas Cloud products
General Silo Information
- Silo's are generally linked via the control tower manage screen to a reactor or harvester, whether the reactor be for boosters or tech II materials.
- Silos have to be offlined before they can be emptied.
- Silos can hold refined ore from refineries but a refinery cannot automatically empty into a silo.
- Silos can only hold 1 type of any material at any one time.
Standard Silo
This silo is the most widely used, it is mainly used for holding moon harvester minerals.
A moon harvester can output into a silo or direct into a reactor.
When using a reactor to mix tech II materials the silo can hold the materials being mixed (or come straight from a reactor) and the mixed material itself (output of the reactor).
