Storagefor crops

[Dignplow]

So I have been talking to RL farmers about grain storage. One of them is called Millenial Farmer a nice guy from youtube and farms in minnesota. I asked how many bushels of grain one of his big silver storage tanks holds and he told me about 60,0000 bushes. This converts over to about 2,114,344.224 Liters. From what I can see he has 6-8 of these. In game its 125k for 100,000 liters which is very broken. I have been looking at mods and they go from 100-500k liters and one I found has 50,000,000 liters. I found a cool multisilo for 800k liters. Anybody know of one that is around 2 million liters as a group of buildings or single. Reason i dont want to mod it myself and mess with numbers is then I have to custom share it with people and ID rather just point to somebody elses work and give them credit.


Quick edit I did find this one as well http://www.farmingmods2015.com/large-si ... beta-ls17/

GIANTS "values" are probably not comparable to real life in any way as they tried to "balance" the game to be more enjoyable for most players.

Yeah im not an Ultra RL person I dont need it just as a farmer has. I do though try to keep it somewhat real..Otherwise we might as well have flying pigs and cows that dance the late night moon away

I am just thinking the storage volumes are probably based on the yield from the fields and the selling prices ...
But to be honest I don´t see why the storage could not have realistic values even if the other parameters do not.

https://www.howmuchisit.org/how-much-do ... -bin-cost/ So for instance this site except for the one typo is what the RL cost of a silo bin would be. Its based on cost per bushel with different add on's. Its not perfect but it gives a accurate Feel for Immersion for the game. So I am using a mod does 800k liters which I can convert over to bushels then times by max price on that site to 3.5 usd per bushel would give me a price of (800k liters = 22702.07 bushels x 3.5 usd per bushel =$79457.245 or 80,000 USD. Stuff like this for me helps with immersion and how I spend my money in game. I dont use cheat cash mods. I do use hagenstedt bank which I wrote and artilce on. I can tell ya though with that bank the penalty interest on big loans hurts if your not on top of it..the kind of immersion I like.
