can two simple reactors that require the same resource link to 1 silo?
For example if i had 2 reactors doing the same reaction would i only need 3 silos or 6? |

No. Each silo has 1 input and 1 output, so you need 6 silos. |

Sorry but I think this needs to be a bit more clear. Each silo may be used for 1 input OR 1 output for ONLY one reaction. So, to answer the op, 6 silos if there are 2 inputs and 1 output for the reaction and you are doing 2. |

Actually, that's kinda misleading. Silos have 1 input and 1 output. Period. This remains true even when there is neither reactor nor reaction involved. |

No...a silo can be used either for input or output in a given reaction. My point is that if you have "Silo A" acting as input, you cannot also use silo A for output. If what you mean is that the links are not permanent, then yeah what you say is true. |

every reartor needs at least 3 silo on their own. 2 silo's provide the raw materials and one silo for the product. a silo also has only one outgoing link and an ingoing link. so a silo cant provide raw mat for two reactors. hope this solves yoour question.
As for your question: you would need 6 silos |
