When it doesn't line up, your extractor will complain about not enough buyers of its product. If you're lucky there's a processor in your city needing that resource at just that moment and the truck will go there, but most of the time things don't line up that nicely. Without storage buildings in your city, your extractors will slowly fill up their internal storage and once that reaches a certain limit, they will send out a truck. Storage buildings' own trucks are only used for delivering or exporting stuff.Įxtractor -> Storage -> Processor -> Storage -> Unique factory -> Storage -> Commercial/export If they import they will send out an order for a resource, which will be delivered to them. Most of the time they will fill up automatically as your extractors need to empty their own small storage. Storage buildings do not pick up resources to fill up. Now that you understand the basics of storage buildings and when to use the different settings for them, let's look at how they work in your city with your other buildings. Understanding how these change the behaviour of your storage facilities and using them correctly is important to get the production chain flowing. Once placed you select the type of goods they should store and they can only store that one type.Ĭommon for all the storage buildings are 3 different settings - Empty, Balanced and Fill.

They can store any intermediate resource (the ones produced in your industry areas - like animal products, paper, plastic and metal), luxury goods (the end result of the new production chain) as well as the goods and resources produced and used by the zoned industry. They store only the raw resource of each area - that's crops for farming, logs for forestry, oil for oil industry and ore for ore industry and there are 4 sizes for each area type.īesides them are the warehouses, which can store a range of different things.
