Dimensional Depot 2

A soft-sequel to Dave-1993's original Dimensional Depot mod. Build depot networks to store construction materials and access them from anywhere on your surface or across all planets. Let's hope Dave doesn't mind!

Core Functionality

This mod provides two types of storage depots:

Local Depots - Share inventory within a single surface (planet). Multiple Local Depots on the same surface pool their contents together. Base capacity is 1 stack per chest, upgradeable to 4 stacks through research.

Dimensional Depot - Cross-surface storage accessible from any planet. Multiple Dimensional Depots across all surfaces share a unified inventory. Requires beating da game.

Important: Depots do not teleport items for machine use. This is not a teleport mod. Items in Depots are withdrawn by the player and their personal robots.

GUI Interface

A button appears in the top-left toolbar after researching Local Depots. Click it to open a searchable inventory view showing all items in your depot network. With player withdrawal enabled (default), you can manually extract items: left-click for 1 item, right-click for 5 items, shift+left-click for a full stack. The interface updates every 60 ticks while open. When Dimensional Depot technology is researched, the GUI displays tabs to switch between Local and Dimensional storage.

Automatic Construction Supply

When the Dimensional Builder shortcut is enabled, the mod automatically supplies construction materials for nearby blueprints. Every 20 ticks (configurable), it scans for ghost entities within 20 blocks, counts required items in your inventory and nearby construction robots, then transfers missing items from your depot network directly to your inventory. Works with any quality - the mod matches ghost quality exactly.

Technologies

• Local Depots - Unlocks basic depot (chemical science)
• Depot Storage Capacity I-III - Increases Local Depot capacity to 2/3/4 stacks (space sciences)
• Dimensional Depot - Unlocks cross-surface depot (promethium science)

Mod Settings

Runtime-Global

• Ticks between requests - How often the mod checks for construction needs (default: 20, range: 1-200). Lower values impact performance.
• Ticks between uploads - Unused legacy setting from original mod (default: 50, range: 1-200)
• Player withdrawal - Enable/disable manual item extraction from GUI (default: enabled)

Startup

• Enable Dimensional Depot - Toggle cross-surface depot availability (default: enabled)
• Early unlock for Dimensional Depot - Use cheaper Gleba-based recipe and agricultural science instead of promethium requirements (default: disabled)
