The state management mechanism for consumables is fully identical to that for components.
You can:
- change the state for part of the quantity
- split the total quantity into separate units
- track state changes via extracted units
The key difference lies in the available actions:
For consumables, only the “lost” action is available, as such items are not subject to repair or diagnostics.
For a detailed description of the state management mechanism, see the article “State management for components”.
