In the early game you are likely to focus quite heavily on research and this will be reflected in your choice of [[Planets]].  As a result, Research is likely to be the first of the 3 resources to routinely overflow its storage capacity while you are away or asleep.

If you hover over your available Research Points in the top right corner of the [[GL_Interface#Right_Side_of_Header|GL Interface Header]], you will see your Research Points Storage capacity based solely on rank. 
-
Storage for Research, [[Artifacts]], and [[Mining]] production can be further increased by purchasing storage towers from the [[Market Artifacts|Artifact Market]] using [[Galaxy Points|GP]]. As these artifacts are sendable, they can also be traded with other players for [[Mission Rewards#Complex Tech Parts|CTP]], Kurenite, or other artifacts.  As of April 2014 storage structures change hands for approximately 750 CTP each; however some players have been know to offer them for as little as 650 or less, while short-term auctions have seen players offering over 800.

* Research can be increased by hiring more scientists, building research structures on your planets, or redeeming Galaxy Points.''
 +
* Rank Capacity: xx

** (XX Research Storage Received from Planet Structures)
 +
* Total Research Done: xx
 +
 +
The Rank Capacity displays your overall Research Points Storage capacity, adding both 150 per Rank as well as the [[Resource_Storage#Resource_Storage_Structures|Storage Received from Planet Structures}.

Other Ways to Increase Research Points Storage:
 +
*[[Krastis]] Zone
 +
*[[Evolution Trees: Kronyn]] - Pod-Cluster Synapses and Pod-Cluster Synergy

== Influence Point Storage ==
 +
 +
Players have a base of 22 points of storage per planet.
 +
 +
== Resource Storage Structures ==
 +
 +
A reference of structures that provide storage, and the amount that they store, can be found on the [[Planetary Structure Reference]].
 +
 +
== Storage Planet Strategies ==
 +
 +
Storage Planets are planets where you intend to build valuable Resource Storage Buildings.  In order to keep them safe, you need to be able to [[Planetary Cloaking|cloak]] the planets well enough that they are not easily scanned by enemies during regular [[Planets#Scanning_for_New_Planets|planet scans]].  For reference, the maximum available scan power is outlined in [[Scan_Blitz_and_Max_Scan]].
 +
 +
The best candidates for Storage Planets are Colossal [[Planets#Plasma_planets|Plasmas]], since they are the largest readily creatable Colossal planets (using a [[Phasic Chain-Ionizer]] on a Very Massive [[Planets#Gas_Planets|Gas]] planet).  The size allows building sufficient [[Planetary Cloaking]] structures to make them virtually unscannable.  If you find one with a [[Planetary_Events_and_Effects#Permanent_Random_Events|Stealth Screen]], that makes things even easier. The other benefit of Plasmas is that you generally assign less value to research-oriented planets once you have completed the [[Research Tree]].  So, repurposing those planets into Storage Planets allows you to continue to make use of them, rather than attempting to
 +
[[Maximizing Planets|maximize]] them (requiring time, abilities, and artifacts),  or simply paying 5 {{GP}} to [[Galaxy_Points#Abandoning_Planets|abandon]] them. 
 +
 +
An alternate candidate for Storage Planets are Very Massive [[Planets#Metallic_Planets|Metallic]] planets.  While these are smaller in size, they can allow you to generate a small bit of Mining Production on the side from the [[Captured T.O. Harvester]]s placed to increase their population, and [[Litheor Core-Tunnel]]s to maximize cloak.  Having 10 Metallics is also useful to get the [[Gauss Chain]] bonuses.
 +
 +
== Artifacts that Provide X Hours of Production ==
 +
 +
When opened, it grants X hours worth of planetary production, not to exceed your planetary and rank capacity.

Artifact Points Storage

Artifact Points Storage increases by 1000 per planet owned. This capacity can be increased by building Resource Storage Structures on your Planets.

In the center section of the top of the Trade Tab Window, the 'Total Planet Capacity' for Artifact Points Storage is displayed (1000 per planet owned).

If you then hover your mouse over the question mark next to the word Artifacts in the Resource column of the Trade Tab Window, you will get a tooltip with this information:

"When receiving an artifact shipment, you will get a single artifact. The more points you have accumulated, the higher the chance of receiving a rarer and more powerful artifact.

XX Additional Artifact Storage Received from Planet Structures"

To get your overall Artifact Points Storage capacity, you need to add up the value listed in the tooltip (Storage Received from Planet Structures) with the 'Total Planet Capacity' (Planets occupied).

Other ways to increase Artifact Points Storage:


Mining Points Storage

Mining Points Storage increases by 500 per planet owned. This capacity can be increased by building Resource Storage Structures on your Planets.

In the center section of the top of the Trade Tab Window, the 'Total Planet Capacity' for Mining Points is displayed (500 per planet owned).

If you then hover your mouse over the question mark next to the word Artifacts in the Resource column of the Trade Tab Window, you will get a tooltip with this information:

"When receiving a shipment of minerals, the current number of units will be c0nverted into actual minerals and put directly in your cargo

XX Additional Mining Storage Received from Planet Structures"

To get your overall Mining Points Storage capacity, you need to add up the value listed in the tooltip (Storage Received from Planet Structures) with the 'Total Planet Capacity' (Planets occupied).

Other ways to increase Mineral Points Storage:

Research Points Storage

Your Research Points Storage capacity starts at 150 Research Points research.pngRP per rank gained. This capacity can be increased by building Resource Storage Structures on your Planets.

If you hover over your available Research Points in the top right corner of the GL Interface Header, you will see your Research Points Storage capacity based solely on rank.

If you hover over your hourly Research Points production, a tooltip will appear, indicating:

  • Research can be increased by hiring more scientists, building research structures on your planets, or redeeming Galaxy Points.
  • Rank Capacity: xx
    • (XX Research Storage Received from Planet Structures)
  • Total Research Done: xx

The Rank Capacity displays your overall Research Points Storage capacity, adding both 150 per Rank as well as the [[Resource_Storage#Resource_Storage_Structures|Storage Received from Planet Structures}.

Other Ways to Increase Research Points Storage:

Influence Point Storage

Players have a base of 22 points of storage per planet.

Resource Storage Structures

A reference of structures that provide storage, and the amount that they store, can be found on the Planetary Structure Reference.

Storage Planet Strategies

Storage Planets are planets where you intend to build valuable Resource Storage Buildings. In order to keep them safe, you need to be able to cloak the planets well enough that they are not easily scanned by enemies during regular planet scans. For reference, the maximum available scan power is outlined in Scan_Blitz_and_Max_Scan.

The best candidates for Storage Planets are Colossal Plasmas, since they are the largest readily creatable Colossal planets (using a Phasic Chain-Ionizer on a Very Massive Gas planet). The size allows building sufficient Planetary Cloaking structures to make them virtually unscannable. If you find one with a Stealth Screen, that makes things even easier. The other benefit of Plasmas is that you generally assign less value to research-oriented planets once you have completed the Research Tree. So, repurposing those planets into Storage Planets allows you to continue to make use of them, rather than attempting to maximize them (requiring time, abilities, and artifacts), or simply paying 5 galaxypoints.pngGP to abandon them.

An alternate candidate for Storage Planets are Very Massive Metallic planets. While these are smaller in size, they can allow you to generate a small bit of Mining Production on the side from the Captured T.O. Harvesters placed to increase their population, and Litheor Core-Tunnels to maximize cloak. Having 10 Metallics is also useful to get the Gauss Chain bonuses.

Artifacts that Provide X Hours of Production

When opened, it grants X hours worth of planetary production, not to exceed your planetary and rank capacity.
