Overview
Dynamic Crate (DynamicCrate) in Stationeers: movable object, hash 1941079206.
The dynamic crate is the simplest portable storage. It has ten unrestricted slots – any item fits, whole stacks included. It is itself a movable item of slot type Crate, so you can move it and put it into any crate slot.
The crate mount and the landers have such slots, for example the Lander Mk II you start with. In the mount the crate stays fixed in place, in the lander it becomes cargo. The crate has no logic values. Via chutes the Loader fills a crate and the Unloader empties it again.
A worked example: ten slots take ten full stacks. With iron ore at 50 per stack that is up to 500 ore in a single crate.
The autolathe makes the Kit (Crate) from 10 iron (10 s, 200 J). Unpacking it gives the crate. The crate Mk II additionally needs 5 gold and the tier 2 printer and also has ten slots. Both can be painted – handy for marking crates by content.
How to combine crates with rovers and chutes is covered in Rovers, landers and portable devices and Chutes and logistics: basics, inputs and outputs.
