Storage range is circular (spherical), so in a diagonal path, the storage range is less, about 7m. To calculate if two [[Storage Chest]]s will be in range of each other, find the coordinates of the two chests (the block the object rotates around when placing it down), add the squares of the distances in x, y and z direction, respectively, and compare that value to the square of the range of the object, which in case of the [[Storage Chest]] appears to be 10 blocks as mentioned before. In the diagonal example on flat ground, this would be 49 + 0 + 49 = 98, which is smaller (can be equal to) the proposed range of 10 blocks, so 7 blocks diagonally would be in range, as would be 7 blocks in one direction, 5 blocks across and 5 blocks up, which would equate to 49 + 25 + 25 = 99. | Storage range is circular (spherical), so in a diagonal path, the storage range is less, about 7m.

Different Objects have different ranges. [[Stockpile]]s of different sizes, [[Campfire]]s and [[Workbench]]es, for example, maybe even most objects, have a range of 14 blocks. The link distance of objects with different ranges is the average of the two. Two chests link over a distance of 10 blocks, a chest and a stockpile link over a distance of <math>{(10+14) \over 2} = {24 \over 2} = 12</math>, and two stockpiles over a range of 14. The [[Small Stockpile]] and [[Stockpile]] are symmetrical, so the orientation does not matter and the distance is calculated from the center block (on the lowest level). [[Tiny Stockpile]]s with a footprint of 2×2 have their reference block in one corner, so depending on the orientation, there can be 11–13 blocks between them in a straight line. | Different [[:Category:Objects|Objects]] have different ranges.

Each linked storage can be enabled from a [[ | Each linked storage can be enabled from a [[crafting station]] by clicking on the check box. Once an inventory is enabled, its contents can be used for crafting, and any products of that crafting station will be placed in to the top appropriate linked storage. This could be a static container or a vehicle. | ||
[[Fuel]] supply inventories are also visible, and behave like other containers and vehicle storage. For example, [[Petroleum]] can go could be loaded first into eligible [[Powered Cart]] fuel supply automatically when crafted at the [[Pump Jack]]. | [[Fuel]] supply inventories are also visible, and behave like other containers and vehicle storage.
