they look exactly the same, except silos cost 5m more. ARe they the same? and what function do they fulfill?

Edited by: Ramblin Man on 09/12/2006 10:28:02 Edited by: Ramblin Man on 09/12/2006 10:06:14 Dunno, I think they got patched in.
Apparently there are 5 different silos now. [Using 250 CPU] - Biochemical Silo (Used to store and handle hazardous biochemicals.) - Catalyst Silo (Specialized container designed to store and handle hazardous liquids.) - General Storage (Used to store or provide resources.) - Hazardous Chemical Silo (Specialized container designed to store and handle gas clouds.)
[Using 500 CPU] - Silo (Used to store or provide resources.)
Edit: Just checked one out. General Storage [silos] can only hold trade goods, so presumably it's the same with the rest of the booster silos. Umm... the question that comes to mind is "Why?" It's not like they're that different in price . Then again, I suppose CCP could have purposefully done it to nerf the booster-kit resale market (i.e. if each piece is specialized, then the market for them is going to be a lot slower than Silos), lest people buy, use, then sell. Do gas clouds despawn after a certain amount of time?

they can only be used in booster production, not as replacement of the old silo.

Edited by: Kurull Skullsplitter on 14/01/2007 23:00:59 Edited by: Kurull Skullsplitter on 14/01/2007 23:00:23 finding info on the General Storage on this forum is a nightmare; this is the best thread I've found so far!!! And it is seems somewhat incomplete.
Here is all I know in addition to what is in the thread so far.
You can only put ONE of the trade goods from the list in the thing at one time. This, in my mind, severely limits the usefulness of the thing.
I'm gonna try coupling it to the tower next and see if I can feed the fuel it will hold. That would save room in the tower storage so maybe just maybe two or three of the fuels could come from these things (I only remember seeing two fuels Coolant & Mech Parts on the list of trade goods it will hold). If not then its a waste of PG and space in the shield and I'm gonna take it down and do something more useful with it like use it for target practice.
anyone else know more about it speak up please!!!!

ok... so just to clarify and ask more questions... this thread is helpfull but erratic...
I have no experience with the subject, I'm just summarizing what I've read here.
Items with question marks after them, I'm confused about.
[Silo]
-Can store multiple kinds of items at the same time? -Can store any kind of item trade goods AND other things like moduals and ships? -Uses 2ce as much cpu as a general storage.
[General Storage]
-Can only store 1 kind of item at a given time. -Can only store trade goods (This includes raw materials, processed materials, advanced materials and more)? -uses half the CPU of a silo.
If someone could please confim that this information is correct I would apprecieate it. Please avoide using "it", "this", "that one" etc. like the posts above did so that it is clear.
I also think that ccp should stick a better description ingame on these items... but that's besides the point....
Thanks, Carter Williams
