Storage Adapter
The Storage Adapter is a deployable industrial-integration port device in RUST that connects the Industrial System to a storage container.
Basic functionality of the Storage Adapter
Players may deploy storage adapters onto most storage-related receptacles in locations where they possess building privileges. The storage adapter’s primary function is to act as an ‘add-on’ porting system for assorted boxes, furnace types, and other storage entities.

Electrical Inputs
Currently, the use of a Wiring Tool and electrical input is not required to operate the storage adapter. This is subject to change, pending alterations made by the developer.
Industrial Interfacing
When utilizing the Pipe Tool, after attaching the device to an appropriate storage unit, the storage adapter possesses 1 Industrial In port and a single Industrial Out port. It is helpful to think of the In port as resources in and the Out port as resources out.
Means of acquiring a Storage Adapter
Currently, the Storage Adapter is craftable via the Work Bench Level 1, requiring 75 scrap to research directly or 190 scrap to tech tree unlock. It may also be found in medium to high-tier crates.
