Dimensional Depot
as seen in other factory games
The dimensional depot can be used to store buildings in a cloud-storage and access them automatically.
If you approach an unbuilt blueprint and the right building is in the storage it will be transferred to your inventory.
You can disable this behavior by clicking on the little gear-symbol in your shortcut-bar.
Works best with a personal roboport.
Limitations:
Quality:
The depot will use the correct quality items. You can not build a epic-quality foundry with a normal one in your storage.
Surface:
Your supply is limited to the surface you are on. You can only access items that were uploaded on the same surface you are building on.
Team/Force:
You can only access items that were uploaded in a depot of your own force.
Removing items from the storage:
It is not possible to access the items in the storage manually. This will not work as a automated teleporter for items.
Storage space:
At the moment the storage is limited to one stack per item.
Plans for the future:
- Accessing resources by using logistic-requests.
- A building that outputs all items in the storage.
- A menu that can access all resources in the storage (might replace the first two).
- Making a custom model.
- Technologies to increase the storage-space.
Known Issues:
Double delivery:
The depot does not know which ghost-entities are already assigned to a construction bot of a stationary roboport so sometimes you get entities that are already on the way. Items in construction-bots that are nearby are counted correctly, so this should be a minor issue.
Please report any bugs in the comment section. Thanks!
