So, I was reading through the Suggestions and Ideas section, and came across someone who thought it'd be a good idea to increase the capacity of the current storages. Which I agree with.
But, I figured no chance of that happening as Dan is still making good money of it, but maybe, just maybe, he'd be interested in adding some new and bigger ones that have a higher price.

So, here's my suggestion:
They would be Artifact Market Items, 92 GP each.
Advanced Artifact Storage Complex.
[ Planet Structure - Size:4 ]
Constructs an Advanced Artifact Storage Complex on your planet (limit 3 per planet).
Increases your total planetary artifact production capacity by 20.000 points.

Advanced Mineral Storage Complex.
[ Planet Structure - Size:4 ]
Constructs an Advanced Mineral Storage Complex on your planet (limit 3 per planet).
Increases your total planetary mineral production capacity by 10.000 units.

Advanced Research Data Archive.
[ Planet Structure - Size:4 ]
Constructs an Advanced Research Data Archive on your planet (limit 3 per planet).
Increases your total research production capacity by 10.000 points.

I was going to put the price at 80 GP per, figuring 5 times the price for 5 times the storage would be fair, but I realized since this would allow everyone to get quite a bit more efficient storage, both in terms of maximum storage per planet, and storage per structure size, we'd probably be willing to pay a little bit extra. I know I would. And if it adds more incentive for Dan to do it? All the better.

Any thoughts?

yes, one

why pay 92 GP for 20K artifact storidge,
when you can get 3 Scruuge Hoarding Vault III (size 2, Artifact: 3, Artifact Storage: 6000) = 18K storidge + artifact production for less

as I remember them they were 28 GP each (but I could be wrong)

because you could place 2 scruuge vaults, 5 regular arti storage and now 3 of these on just one planet? maximizing your ability to gain storage without the need to give up more planet slots.

as long as they're exctractable/sendable, then +1

That's basically about it, yeah. Much more efficient storage, with these alone you could get 60.000 storage on one planet. Combine them with the Scruuge Vaults and the 5 regular arti towers, that's 92.000 storage, based on the latest hoarding vaults, on just one planet.


That would of course be ideal. Up to Dan I guess, his game, his rules.

i wish every Android Scientist had 1 res storage

or I could just place 2 scruuge vaults on all my artifact planets and get both a nice production boost and 12K artifect storidge pr planet (maby even 14K storidge pr planet if we get a marc V version Next time)

92 storidge on your super planet only = 7 to 8 normal artifact planets with scruuge vaults

7-8 planets compared to 1. Easy choice for me, given invasion costs. Now, if you're going to take 7-8 planets anyway, make 3 of them Super Storage planets at 92K, and make the rest pure production.

this suggestion is all benefit with no cost. double the size for 5x the storage ? hellya. but it aint gonna happen.

i would favour an even bigger storage structure - size 8, resource 2, storage 20k (of resource choice).

and the trade.offs:
- limit 1 per planet
- non.extractable, but still sendable
- costs 65 GP (cheaper than 80 GP for 5 normal warehouses)
- if when built, the planet has no normal warehouses ... resource +2

invasion cost isnt realy a factor in this
you proberly have some artifact planets you have already cloaked to 26K+ cloak where you could free up 4 Spaces to put 2 Scruuge Hoarding Vault on, that wouldnt effect the production on the planets mutch (might even increase it)

so for me it's still 92 GP Price i think is off - you get more or less the same storidge out of Scruuge Hoarding Vault for 84 GC's if we presume they are 7.000 storidge Next year

if they were 80 GP each, instead of the 92 GP. they would be more an alternativ to waiting until chrismas for the Scruuge Hoarding Vault I can get theire


and the problem is even worth, when it comes to recearch and mining

Q-Pedd Science Station 3.0 (size 2 Research: 3, Research Storage: 4000)
T.O. Harvest Vault III (size 2, Mining: 3, Mining Storage: 4000 )

if we get an upgrade on those next time the seasons comes around so version IV or 4.0 is 5000 storidge
2 of these structures basickly (around 56 GP) = 1 of your new structures (92 GP)
