Adds 1x1 storage tanks with low capacity to the game. A Factorio 2.0 expanded port of the mod "Extra Storage Tank: Minibuffer" by Anicha.
Mods introducing new content into the game.
Version: 1.4.0
Date: 2025-06-11
Minor Features:
- Created an option for enabling just one or both of the storage tanks.
Translation:
- Updated Chinese translation using DeepL.
Internal:
- No longer copies from database when creating 4-way-variant of the storage tank.
- Tidied up.
Version: 1.3.0
Date: 2025-01-09
Changes:
- Storage tanks are no longer unlocked through research of separate technology.
Minor Features:

recipe requires a steel plate; if unlocked early on with Steam Power, iron sticks.
Translation:
- Added very basic Chinese translation for new setting with DeepL.
Internal:
- Removed old migration file, no longer relevant.
- Tidied up a bit.
Version: 1.2.0
Date: 2024-12-22
Balancing:
- Reduced mining time of storage tanks from 0.2 to 0.1.
Info:
- Added extra info to Factoriopedia entries, because I could.
Internal:
- Overhauled prototype creation so the storage tanks no longer inherit their values from the
vanilla Storage Tank. A general solution to a mod conflict issue that was fixed in v1.1.4.
Version: 1.1.5
Date: 2024-12-21
Balancing:
- Added weight to the storage tanks. Much lower than before.
Version: 1.1.4
Date: 2024-12-07
Bugfixes:
- The optional "next_upgrade" property was explicitly set to nil as a quick fix to a crash
possibly caused by mod load order changes in relation to the Space Age DLC and the mod
Storage Tank Mk2 2.0 by Jtmzac.
Info:
- Fixed changelog for v1.1.3.
Internal:
- Fixed a description of a new piece of code.
Version: 1.1.3
Date: 2024-12-06
Changes:
- Compatibility for Space Age DLC: Heating required on Aquilo is now roughly proportional to
the surface area of the storage tanks (25kW instead of 100kW).
- Compatibility for Space Exploration (not relevant): Change now only occurs if it's installed.
Also added it as hidden optional dependency.
- Now requires "base" version 2.0.7 or higher, for the sake of inbuilt tech reset function.
Version: 1.1.2
Date: 2024-11-23
Graphics:
- Created a custom explosion effect that better fits the size and color of the storage tanks.
Sounds:
- Replaced explosion sound with a weaker variant, downgraded impact category to "metal" and
reduced working volume to better fit the size of the storage tanks.
- Replaced generic inventory item pick/drop/move as well as entity open/close sounds with those
used for small metal objects (added in Factorio 2.0).
Internal:
- Compacted and restructured a lot of code.
- Tidied up.
Version: 1.1.1
Date: 2024-11-09
Translation:
- Added new chinese translation provided by Houraiji_Kyuusyou!
Version: 1.1.0
Date: 2024-11-09
Features:
- Added a 4-way version of the storage tank! Looks decent enough.
Graphics:
- Copied and modified graphics of existing storage tank for use with the new variant.
Note: Left icon the same, because new pair of icons would become too small.
- Carefully fixed missing shadow for back-side pipe connection.
Translation:
- Removed chinese translation for now, due to many changes. Sorry!
Changes:
- Updated mod title and description.
- Updated descriptions.
- Changed technology name because it unlocks two recipes now, added migration.
