Talk:Storage

It is possible to send more resources to a colony than you could store before production stops? (i.e., A new colony with no silos recieves 15000 metal. Would it be able to hold all the metal, but not continue production until you fell below 10,000 metal or increased your metal storage capacity?)

Yes...
you can have more resources than you have storage. But once you meet or exceed your storage for a particular resource you will no longer generate that specific resource on that planet.
