Re: Construction questions
I'll try to answer what questions I can [:D]
1. Yes, silos only hold 1 item type at a time and can hold any type of resource.
2. That is my understanding also..all plots are being changed to RCI zoning.
3. You can go to http://community.istaria.com/and find a listing of the structures that can built, what their storage capacities are, what type of machines come with the structure, the material required to build them and their footprints.
4. There is currently no way to tell what construction a plot needs other than bringing up the plot window and looking at the Construction tab.
I use Pekka's MapPack for resource and machine locations as well as monster locations. You can find it here....http://community.istaria.com/Web/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3896

I'm a fitter/mason (close to Tier 3 in both), so if I built some silos, could I fill one with iron sheets, one with slate blocks, etc.? Or do they only hold raw resources? Can I empty a silo and refill it with a different resource?
They can hold any one item. If you wanted to, you could put a shoulder pad in one, but that would fill the silo. Stackable items like raw resources, processed resources, construction units, and dead mice are best.

That remains to be seen. Some of how it sounds makes me believe that only those plots resold back to the empire will be rezoned. You may end up selling your plot to the empire, waiting a time, and then having to re-buy it. But I can't offer a definite answer myself.

The only guides I can find are from late beta and are out of date with what I'm remembering and since my plot is R-only, they don't show up in the planning window.
On an R-only plot, you get houses and all the curb appeal such as trees, boulders, walkways, etc. As was stated in the previous reply, the http://community.istaria.comwebsite offers that breakdown under Structures.

No. The flags only mean the plot is for sale. Any paying plots have to be found out by visiting them and checking in the building construction windows to see if there is any coin to be paid.

*edit* oh, one more thing. I hear the world has changed a lot in my absence. Does anyone have an up-to-date map showing where resources and world machines are located now?
Pekka's Map Pack can be found elsewhere in the forums. With the exception of the newly-done Lesser Aradoth, it's pretty complete.

Ok, I can answer this definitively. ALL plots have been rezoned to RCI.
