Overview
- Storages/Stack: a stack is the basic element to store items.
- Storages/Chests: the most obvious storage.
- smart chest
- logistic chests
- usage of the storage chest
- Vehicle: vehicles can store a significant amount of items
- Vehicle/Car: the car has a very huge inventory
- Vehicle/Train/Wagon: stores about 1000 resource-items.
- Transport belts/Use as storage: The amount of items on a transport belt can be astonishing high, calculate with 7 items per tile! Especially at train stations and in production streets this must be taken into account. Splitters and underground belts can be also used as storage. Splitters have a special behavior, which makes them well useable as storage at train stations (fast in, slow out), while underground belts don't take away space.
Layout types
Simple buffers
- belt, inserter, chest
- limit number of stored items (stack reduction & circuit network)
- splitter cascade
Production buffers
- belts
- chests with stack reduction
- chests with circuit network
- logistic network
Train station with belts
Train station with logistic network
Other buffers with logistic networks
- Storages/Production buffers: layouts, examples

Behavior
Stacks
Special behavior
- Logistic network/Meaning of negative numbers
- Storages/Wagon/Using as "big chest"
- Storages/Mining full chest, if own inventory is full: this is no good idea. :))
