Storage Capacity is the maximum number of containers that a ship can carry.
Ships cannot be detected with more containers than their limit:
- Speeders have a storage capacity equal to 25% of their block count.
- Civilian ships have a storage capacity equal to 4.5% of their block count.
- Warships have a storage capacity equal to 2.5% of their block count.
- Platforms have no limit on the amount of containers they can pilot.
The storage capacity used by a container varies by container type, with one unit of storage capacity representing 9 inventory slots:
- Chests and barrels use 3 storage capacity each. A doublechest uses 6 storage capacity.
- Dispensers and droppers use 1 storage capacity per block.
- Hoppers use 1 storage capacity each.
- Ender chests do not use any storage capacity, but cannot be obtained in survival.
