[space-age] Container sizes increase with quality.
So higher quality material for a storage container... allows you fit more inside of it? 8-)

You can make the walls thinner and taller!

Now I can do something with those quality logistics chests I accidentally made.

Of course, because the material is stronger it can hold more weight before collapsing from all the crap rammed in there.

We actually got them... now we just need to convince the devs to give us longer underground connections for quality belts/pipes.

Would be nice to extend this same treatment to fluid storage tanks.
I don't have OCD, I have CDO. It's the same, but with the letters in the correct order.

Would also be nice if train wagons- including the fluid wagons- had increased storage capacity. Trains have fallen far behind in space age with the ridiculous throughput of everything :)

(And also +1 to fluid storage tanks being affected by quality)

Agree, I have barely used trains after I unlocked faster belts and stacking. A full train isn't close to enough for late game Vulcanus

Balancing discussions live here: viewforum.php?f=16
Fluid wagons received a hefty 20k > 50k increase of capacity in Space Age age, bumpingit further may or may not be ridiculously OP.
Which is worth discussing there.

I'd like to propose an interface setting to make the icons smallers like they used to be before this release. Personally im not a big fan of the new size but i do like the style of them
