<br />
The '''storage chest''' is a large advanced storage item that is part of the [[logistic network]]. [[Logistic robot]]s store any items taken out of the [[Player|player's]] logistic trash slots here, as well as items picked up from [[active provider chest]]s. [[Construction robot]]s will use stored items to repair damaged entities and construct [[ghost]]s. Storage chests can be filtered to only accept one type of item from the logistic network.<br />
<br />
=== Notes ===<br />
* Logistic robots will pick up items in the following priority: [[active provider chest]]s > storage chests, [[buffer chest]]s > [[passive provider chest]]s<br />
* Logistic robots will begin to fill storage chests from active provider chests if there are no other tasks available.<br />
* Logistic robots will fill storage chests in the following priority: <br />
*# Storage chests with a matching inventory<br />
*# Storage chests with a matching filter <br />
*# Storage chests with no filter and no inventory <br />
*# Storage chests with no filter and a mismatched inventory<br />
* The filter that can be set on the storage chest is respected even if items that are actively being pushed to the network can not be stored anywhere else.<br />
* If a logistic robot carrying an item is unable to deliver its cargo (e.g. if the player moves out of range), it will drop its cargo in a storage chest before moving to other tasks.<br />
