A Depot is a building that stores and distributes resources between nearby producer and consumer buildings within their range using their attached drones. Depots are the only way to move resources to or from a building or vehicle.

This is the first of three levels of Depot, available from the start of the game.

Depot chaining

When 2 or more Depots of the same resource type are within range of each other, they will attempt to split their resources evenly. This can be used to create large storage areas, or to load/unload resources from a nearby building or vehicle more quickly. They can also be chained together in a line or other shape to create a rough "conveyor belt" between points, or expand their combined effective range.
