How It Works
Automatic Restock Control
The restocking is for the underground only. Stock is taken from the surface and moved underground.
The underground stock is checked if something is needed, and the surface is checked to see if you have enough stock.
Stock should be nearby ideally within reach of the upper elevators drones to effectively move stock underground.
You should put at least one depot of every type of resource you expect to move underground, right next to the upper elevator and have the same underground.
Once the mod is installed and enabled, you must go to your Upper-Underground Elevator and turn it on.
Set your schedule and the threshold of each resource you want to automate restocking.
If the resource undreground is below your set threshold, the Elevator A.I will place an order on the next scheduled check.

A resource set to zero means the A.I. never orders that resource.
Hover over the schedule section to see the schedule.
The threshold of each resource is also the reorder amount.
You can manually order any resource at any time by using the standard resupply controls.

Disabling the Elevator A.I
You can disable the A.I at any time by clicking the Elevator A.I. button.
Ctrl+Left Click will uninstall the A.I from that elevator if you want to move the A.I. to another elevator (if you have two or more).

You can disable the entire mod and fixes with Mod Config Reborn Option.

It does not touch those statistics.

Does it fix the surface reports on unemployed and homeless colonists? When you send them underground the surface reports show them as unemployed and homeless.

Minor update to fix a rare error condition with the new patch.

a option to change the underground elevator resupply setings so that you dont have to hold LMB for 5+ mins streight until you get to 8k of each resource. thinking that it goes up by one when not holding any other buttons, goes up by 10 when holding shift and LMB, goes up by 100 when holding LCtrl and LMB, goes up by 1000 when holding LAlt and LMB.

Sir what if I want to auto supply items from underground to surface? I'm thinking of moving all resource production underground.

I am almost 1000 sols into my game, would I be able to implement this mod and it work into it.?Or have I to install the mod and start a new game?

Thanks for your work, Rich, this mod is just what I need!

Mostly I just want to move waste rock from the underground to the surface. Manually using a RC Transport is tedious. I would have thought that would be just another cargo item for the elevator. Until you get some form of waste rock reprocessing, the limited space underground gets filled with waste rock pretty quickly, so moving it to the surface makes sure that space gets cleared out.
