Increase materials cap, storage

[Teh Smoo]

1000 sounds like a lot, but when synthesis needs up to 6 of a material, and you have LONG lists of minerals, plus if you try and gather materials for engineers, that 1000 limit gets hit pretty quick.

It would be much better if you could have... 2000 each? That would be killer. Or the option of carrying 1-ton material racks in cargo that increase your materials cap by 1000 each. And probably more data, too. Have each of those material racks increase data storage by 500 as well.

And the ability to stash the cargo racks in a station.

And since NPCs aren't interested in materials or limpets, these should get the same treatment. They have no trade value anyway.

FD know this is an issue; when we get a change to it and how that change is implemented is another thing entirely.

Raising the storage cap has been asked for numerous times and I guess pretty much everyone agrees.
Another good idea I've read somewhere is enable us to set a cap for individual materials and data. I'm already tired of clearing my storage space from stuff I don't need.
