HI,
I have a question about refiling silo with materials while reactor is online.
For example I am doing Graphane Nanoribbons reaction.
For example: I have enough gas in my both Biochemical to keep reactor running for another day but i am running out with nocxium in my standard silo.
Is there a "good" way to refile standard silo?
Is simple off-lining standard silo and adding more nocxium a right way? Does it affect a cycle some how?
UI for a reactions is lame you dont have any timers and so on, that is why I ask?
Or:
Would it be bast to add enough amount of all materials at the beginning of production to all silo so they last for a fixed time? Like: c-28 - 2400 c32 - 2400 nocxium - 9600 so its a fix 24h cycle?
Ty.

A silo holds a LOT of minerals. Normally a smaller Coupling Array is used for hybrid polymer reactions.
If you really want more capacity, you can cascade silos, or use a bonused tower like Amarr or Gallente.
As long as you don't have the silo offline during the tower tick (check the out of fuel time in the calendar for minutes past the hour), you won't waste any material, and can refill whenever you need to.
I always put in exact amounts, so I know what to expect on output, but I'm a bit OCD. |

What tau said. As long as the silo is online during the minute the tick takes place, it can be offline for the other 59 minutes each hour without issue. The calendar does tell the time it goes offline so that's your tick, some 3rd party pos watcher apps also show your tick as well. You should have no trouble obliging the silo from the management screen, opening the silo and dropping your material in and reonlining it in about a minute tops. |

Oh, and if you don't know about the calendar: click on the in-game clock at the bottom left of the Neocom. |
