Oil tanks look cool. Let's get a big storage also for items!

Everytime I build the refinery stuff, I really think it's super cool looking.
And then I always want a big storage building for items as well, that works like the fluid-tank for liquids.

It just looks stupid to only use little chests as storage. Work arounds are using a cargo wagon, I know. But still, that is not feeling right. So how about we get a 2x2 or 4x4 storage building?

Something like this maybe:

Lots of mods out there for that. 2x2 large wooden chests, ore silos, warehouses. Take your pick.

And as you mention using cargo wagons I assume you want large in size and not large in storage. Well, the mods give you both. The larger size tends to come with larger storage. I like warehouses (6x6 large) for high throughput train stations. No need to balance 6 chests per cargo wagon. Just stuff it all into one warehouse per wagon.

Thanks for the info. Though I usually try to not use mods. Makes multiplayer harder, introduces management overhead, and might cause bugs and instabilities.
Having said that, I once spent 2 weeks just modding Skyrim into the abyss. And currently running Oblivion heavily modded. (Including crashes )

However, developing games for quite some time myself, I always related to the base game most. It is what the designer intended for me and how they envisioned their game.

But thanks!

Well, modded chests just set the size, storage and image to use. No scripts involved usually. Should be save.

Adding mods to multiplayer is a pain though. I seriously hope they add something to 0.16 to fetch mods from the server in multiplayer.
