Overview
The second largest of the Cargo Containers, only available for small ships only. Scaling at 3x3x3 blocks. The Medium cargo container is a block with a decent amount of inventory space used for storing components, ores, materials, and tools. It contains both large, and small conveyor ports.
Usage
The container can be manually inserted with items. However, this can be very inefficient. You can also connect it to other blocks to directly transfer items between them. Simply connect the cargo container port to either a block such as Refinerys or Conveyors connected to one with an inventory.
This size cargo container is a 3x3x3 object for the small ship variant, it has a average amount of cargo space, but less than half of its larger counterpart - Large Cargo Container. The container serves as a general purpose cargo block, with both large and small conveyor ports. Its has a greater cargo capacity than Small Cargo Containers equal to it's size.
Tips
- If you leave containers as is, items will automatically pile up inside them. But they won't prevent any from coming in. If you want to make specific cargo containers, use the Conveyor Sorter block!
Media
Known Issues
- As of Update 01.093, stored items in inventories will add to the mass of the ship. The more items that are stored inside, the slower you will get!
