Larger Basic Depots

Description
Upgrades the basic resource stockpiles to store more resources. This is configurable if you have ModConfig running, otherwise the default is 66% more. So the specialized depots store 300 resources each, and the universal one stores 50 of each resource. The waste rock dumps now store a generous 350 tons of rocks each, or again, whatever you configure it to be if you use ModConfig.

ModConfig is not required, but it is supported, if you want to set your own values.

The variable for depots is how many boxes high do they stack. Vanilla is 3, my default is 5 boxes high, which still looks plausible to me. With ModConfig, I allow up to 20 high, which is starting to look like the tower of Babel. (Though the limit is arbitrary. I COULD let you stack them all the way to low orbit if there is demand for that kind of silliness.)

The mod is different in that it uses a small piece of code to manipulate the vanilla templates in memory when you start or load a map. It ONLY affects the number of vertical boxes and capacity. Any menu positions, internationalization, graphics, etc, are not affected. So hopefully this should be the most compatible with just about any mods, future Haemimont changes, save games, or really anything short of a nuclear strike.

Semi-works with MCR (to answer another question), Stack heigth and Wast Rock can be changed, 'bonus' to storage can not.

" Though the limit is arbitrary. I COULD let you stack them all the way to low orbit if there is demand for that kind of silliness. "
I wouldn't do that... Once the origin of an item (res cube) hits the height limit (65536) and you try to save the game it'll crash and delete the save file.

Hi there.. I've released a new 3hex extended depot mod; https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1793460653

and had a request to make my mod and yours compatible... I'm writing to ask if this is doable from your end.. or can I copy/incorporate your code into my own mod?

Hey yes it works with the new DLC but not with the new Seed storage. Update Please or Seeds?

Do it work with Green Planet?
And do it work with Mod Config Reborn (MCR)? (Mod Config dont work for me, and many useful mods use MCR...) If it possible - add support for MCR!

Does this mod impact the waste rock depots?

Thanks! I prefer the look and function of the auto depots once I’m able to get them up and running but having to place several of the tiny basic depots early on is a bit annoying and looks awful to boot.
