Asked Questions
- Can zombies destroy the Storage-O-Matic, and screw up my save with thousands of items on the floor? No. Zombies completely ignore it, and can not damage it.

- Can we upgrade the Storage-O-Matic to a higher tier? No, you will have to craft a new one.

- Can the Storage-O-Matic be destroyed by fire? No.

- Is this mod mid-save compatible? Yes, it is safe to add this mod to an existing save. this mod only adds some items and recipes. No gamechanging code.

- Will this mod get advanced features? Probably not, this is just a simple item mod.

- Does the Storage-O-Matic require power? No, it only takes some batteries to craft it. The batteries do not drain and do not have to be replaced.

- Where can we find memory cards? Houses, offices, schools, electric store, book store, random crates.

- Does this mod work in multiplayer? Yes.

- Can we add a passcode or padlock to the Storage-O-Matic? No.

Is there, or will there be a visual meter that will show free space left/

@ somoto the wolf, probably not. This is just a simple item mod.
Two more questions: Is this mid-save compatible, and how does the game handle a maxed out 200,000 storage unit?
JUURIAAN  [developer] 12 Jul, 2023 @ 6:55am 
Yes, it is mid-save compatible, but make a backup just in case. I cannot say how the game responds to a unit with 200.000 storage maxed out, we are only at 5000 out of 200.000 in our save game at this moment :P

Would it be possible to give us a version of this but actually combining adjecent containers as one lrge container unit. This way it would be more realistic and scalable.
JUURIAAN  [developer] 13 Jul, 2023 @ 8:26am 
It might be possible, but it will require learning some lua. For now this is just a simple container mod.

Can I find this storage on the map?
Do I need to read a book to learn how to craft this storage?
JUURIAAN  [developer] 23 Sep, 2023 @ 11:41pm 
Ferbemas, you cannot find the storage on the map. You do not need to learn the recipes. You have to craft it yourself, it is in the Storage-O-Matic tab in the crafting menu. You will need to find memory cards in the world to make the storage module.

If it had a code or password lock that you have to enter, then it would make a great addition to a scenario that i have in mind!.
if you fully load up the entire container (eg. 4000/4000) then you pick it up, will you be crushed? lol
JUURIAAN  [developer] 22 Dec, 2023 @ 5:20am 
It should not be possible to pick it up with so much stuff in it.

when i go next to a storage o matic with many items(nearly full) and click the craft/bandage buttons, it crashes the game and the server, and the save refuses to load. any fix for this?

Hello witherstorm1x1, I am sorry to hear this. Unfortunately the only option is to load a backup. When you open craft menu, the game loads all recipes available with all items in the vicinity. The more mods, the more recipes. I tested crafting with full storage in vanilla and it was good, of course most people play with a lot of mods. If you have a lot of mods be a bit careful putting too many different items in it
