About this mod
Manage storage across your base. Define filters and transfer resources between storage buildings.
Compatible with Unity Mod Manager or older Patcher/Redirector.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
You can control the filters for your storage buildings through the new 'Manage Storage' UI.
Controls:
- Use the buttons in the edit building menu to toggle storage on or off.
- Turning storage ON for a resource will allow colonists/bots to place resource in the building.
- Turning storage OFF for a resource will make colonists/bots move all of that resource to the nearest available storage.
- Enable/Disable all to toggle all resource filters.
NOTE - Turning storage OFF marks all of that resource to be collected, which may cause all your colonists to descend en masse to move them!
Tips:
- Newly built storage will allow all resources.
- Colonists will store a resource in the nearest building that allows it.
I recommend using Improved Manufacturing Limits to help manage your resource supplies.
Installation:
For Unity Mod Manager
- Download StorageGuru.zip (Unity Mod Manager version).
- Download and extract Unity Mod Manager.
- Within the extracted files, run UnityModManager.exe.
- Select Planetbase from the Game dropdown and ensure your installation of Planetbase is selected in the Folder field.
- Hit Install.
- Open the Mods tab and drop in StorageGuru.zip (alternatively, add the contents of the zip file to a "\Mods\StorageGuru" folder in the game's install directory)
For Patcher/Redirector
- Ensure your game is Patched.
- Ensure you have installed Redirector.
- Download StorageGuru.zip from Old Files.
- Extract the file contents to "...\Documents\Planetbase\Mods". You should see 'StorageGuru.dll' and a 'StorageGuruData' folder.
- Your folder structure within "...\Documents\Planetbase" should look like:
Mods
|- StorageGuruData

Known issues:
- Toggling a resource off then on can cause colonists to come and pick up the resources and put them back down again.
