A "pro tip" to add into the guide. I'll try to remember to get that included.
I already set max stock limit, but water consumption eats up to much space and uses to much water by far to make it worth while to even use, I had 3 of them and am destroying ever one of them. water just takes up way to much space with out having to always stock so so much water!. it uses 1,000 Units per Cycle, and like 3 cycles per 12 hours, so 5-6 cycles per day so over 5k per day alone. wish there was Storage containers that could be bought to increase storage, as a POB Stockable Item. or even maybe a way to make them with POB's as well. with more storage space and water levels dropped by half maybe to 500 Hydroponics might be useful. when you have enough storage space to use them, also wish Crew and Scientist didn't take up 10 Cargo space each, that also sucks a lot of cargo space up that ores could use... because Ores are very demanding for space, you need 8,333 Ores just to make 5,000 Units of Refined materials...
So in short wish something could be done here...

on a core 4 base with 850 crew I restock water weekly with around 50k max stock. food and oxygen are always topped off. did you do ANY calculations at all?
