But wait, you say you enjoy Space Exploration?
What i do like on Space Exploration:
- more real looking space ships, not just concrete bricks with some buildings on it flying around in space.
- The Cargo rocket, transporting up to 5000 items in one run (when flying circuit boards ...

Mods: bring-back-space-casino and hazard-concrete-recycling, but these seem unrelated and I assume inserter state-checks shouldn't be breakable by a mod.

I like your attitude toward Fulgora but I just don't think concrete recycling is going to be what people base their design goals on there.

Hello,

I have a space platform that makes a circle between the inner planets and Aquilo. Among other things, it brings refined concrete to Aquilo. I have the refined concrete request set to "any planet" (blank) because I don't really care if it picks it up from Vulcanis, Nauvis, or Fulgora - they ...

However, what I realised was that in addition to the stuff I expected to be recycled, other low profile things get pulled in. F.e. concrete, which is bacialy nonexistent in the system, since I am starting out Fulgora and all concrete goes towards crafting or rail supports, which just ...
