Storage Crates

[schizmo]

hmmm wooden storage racks should hold 2x ammount. steel 3x. and plasteel 5x maybe?? because they are strong so they can rise higher? or use multiplication by material quality. same based on the hit points. plasteel 280% or something like that. so we can also build with stones and any modded materials in the future.

Maybe furniture quality could play a part as well, higher quality shelves (masterwork etc) could give slight boosts to storage capacity and slight reductions to what would likely be a negative beauty impact

I suggest metal resources like Steel, Gold, Plasteel should be compacted for storaging and melted for using this would be a nice way stocking a imense number of metal material.

For example a fullstack of 75 steel would be the same has 1 compacted steel. And those compact steel would stack to 50 units giving 1250 of steel in only one square from your warehouse.

A workshop should compact them. And another one would melt them to usable Steel again.

I suggest for rebalancing:
- Colonist can only carry 2 or 3 compacted material, because of the heavy weight, still they would be carrying 225 of steel.
- The meltdown process should consume 10% of the steel. Something about 7,5 from 1 compacted steel returning 68 of usable steel. I don't know why... But for rebalancing purposes would be nice.

A mod like this would be fantastic, if anyone of you guys know about please tell me!
