The Storage Depot is a permanent world structure typically located near Town Bases that are specially designed to store crates, shippable structures, and land vehicles.

Description

The Storage Depot is a permanent World Structure typically found near towns, and are specifically designed to hold large amounts of equipment and vehicles. Similar to Seaports, they are specifically used in the same manner as to store Crates and allows them to be retrieved later in their crate state.

The Storage Depot can store:

A Stationary Crane is included near the loading pad to help with loading and unloading. The depot also allows players to create their own reserve stockpile and let other players access it by sharing its access code.

All Storage Depots that a faction begins with on a new World Conquest starts with 30 Trucks and various supplies of item crates and shippables in storage to begin early game logistics.

You can check the content of every stockpile you have access to of any Storage Depot by opening the map with M and by placing your cursor on their icon MapIconStorageFacility.png, press Tab to cycle through the stockpiles (or Shift to cycle backwards).

Destruction & Capture

You cannot access a storage depot owned by the enemy, your faction must claim it before you can use it. To claim it simply destroy it and rebuild it with a Construction Vehicle. However this first requires that your faction owns the nearby Town Base and that it has unlocked the Industry IconUpgradesIndustry.png upgrade. Rebuilding an enemy storage depot only gives you a quarter of its content and none of its Soldier Supplies crates. If the enemy destroys your storage depot but doesn't rebuild it, then none of the content stored will be lost when you rebuild it.

Submitting & Retrieving

Crates Crate.png

Crates of items can be stored in the storage depot stockpile. Press right click on the crate in your inventory and select the option "Submit to Stockpile" or "Submit All to stockpile". The latter will submit all crates in your inventory while the former will let you choose how many crates to submit.

Stacks of Materials can be transformed into crates of materials, and vice versa, via the right click menu while in the storage depot menu if you have enough of them (need 100 Basic Materials for a crate, 20 for Explosive Materials, Refined Materials, and Heavy Explosive Materials, 1 for Diesel and Petrol).

The storage depot's public stockpile can store up to 1000 crates of each item type.

The crates inside a shipping container can be transfered by placing the container with a crane on the loading area, selecting the desired stockpile in the top right corner, then transfering specific crates from the container via the right click menu on the crates in the container inventory that is shown on the bottom left. You can also retrieve crates from the storage depot stockpiles and transfer them into the container via the same menu.

Vehicles MapIconVehicle.png

The storage depot can store vehicles. Land vehicles can be stored in the public vehicle stockpile. The vehicle has to be fully repaired (including Tank Armor if applicable) and have an empty inventory for this to work. To store a vehicle, get in the driver seat and open the storage depot menu by pressing E, then click the "Submit Vehicle" button Submit Vehicle Icon.png. Alternatively, if the vehicle is packageable it can be stored by packaging the vehicle, using a crane to place it on the loading area, and pressing the Submit Loading Area Equipment button DrivewayEquipment.png in the storage depot menu.

The storage depot's public stockpile can store up to 100 vehicles of each type and 100 vehicle crates of each type.

When retrieving a vehicle from the storage depot it spawns on the loading area ready for use, and starts with 5% diesel fuel.
