Easy way to get ammo into turrets on space platform?

You are supposed to be crafting them on the platform itself. Otherwise, simply launching

I never tested but I afraid that drone delivery will not work, due to absence of air. So only belts remain - not much choice.

I've been wondering this too.

• yellow ammo is trivial to make on the spot and just feed direct.
• for red, you can launch 50 mags but you can get 1000 copper into a launch rocket for 200 red mags (after processing the iron/steel/yellow in orbit)
• Ur is only 20 for a rocket (and you could just throw 25 green mags in) so green ammo is a premium I don't think is worth it yet

Having determined I wanna try red mags, I'm trying to work out a good way to get the red mags to the turrets. exiting an underground belt to 4 inserters is the best I can come up with

Don't forget turrets can feed ammo to other turrets. IF you want to share some Space Age tips and tricks, try checking out viewtopic.php?f=18&t=117167
