Read by Schine Rename "Storage" block to "Manifest Computer"

[alterintel]

I think it would reduce allot of confusion if the "Storage" block were simply re-named to "Manifest Computer"
The upcoming "area trigger" like modules that need to be connected to the "Manifest Computer" should be named "Manifest Modules".

Think of it like a Weapon Computer, and Weapon Modules. The more modules the more powerful.
A Manifest Computer with more Modules will have more Storage Capacity.

Despite the best efforts of Bench, explaining this multiple times, there seems to be allot of confusion about how this whole storage thing is going to work. If people looked at it like it was a weapon computer and modules, I believe it would clear up alot of the confusion.

Manifest Computer = One Block that can store a maximum amount of blocks by itself.
Manifest Module = A transparent module like an area trigger that you can walk through. Linked to Manifest Computer

To increase the Maximum capacity of the Manifest Computer, One or MORE Manifest Modules should be linked to the Manifest Computer. As you put more and more Stuff in your Manifest Computer, you will begin to see the Manifest Modules fill up with "Crates" to represent how full your Manifest Computer is getting.

I think "Cargo" "Freight" and "Hold" would work as well as "Manifest" but agree that "Storage" might be confusing.

Eh, I think Storage is the simplest and makes the most sense. The "realistic" way to go would be "Manifest Computer" and "Storage Area", but that gets confusing, so let's just go with "Storage Computer" and "Storage Area".

Remember, all cargo, freight, and... stuff in a hold is storage, but not all storage is cargo, not all cargo is freight, and neither all storage, nor all cargo, nor all freight is in a hold. :P

I think storage should remain the way it is. I think what should happen is there should be 2 separate blocks. One for the new cargo system and storage block should remain as they are. What you are saying makes sense but I don't think they should rename the block as it would confuse people.
