Title: How do you see how much cargo space will be taken up by an installation?
Post by: Foolcow on January 26, 2011, 05:35:54 PM

I want to know how much cargo space things will take up without having to build it and then check how much my cargo ship can store.  Is this information listed anywhere in the game?  Or out of the game?

In general most installations need 5 cargo holds.  This will include terraformer, mines, factory, ect.  The main one that is larger is the reasearch lab which needs 20 times more.  This by the way is the reason that most designs of freighters use multiples of 5 cargo holds. 

Somewhere in the forumn there was a complete list but I couldn't find it with a little searching.  Good luck
