How to automate mixed-cargo rocket launch?

I want to ship a mix of agri packs and bioflux from Gleba to Nauvis. The transport platform has a request for 900 agripacks and 100 bioflux, with low minimum so that the rocket launches as soon as it is ready, to avoid adding to the spoilage while waiting for a full rocket.

But it launches only with one of the two item types and ignores the other even when there's lots of empty space on the rocket. It works fine when I manually launch it, but not when responding to orbital requests.

How can I make it launch right away, but with both items, as many as the silo has? It makes no sense to split the items into two rocket launches, I only need very little bioflux but because it spoils it needs to be shipped often enough.

Adjust the orders so each would request whole rocket (or N full rockets) worth of each specific item.
Which means 1000 (or 2000 or 3000...) agri pack and 1000 (or 2000 or 3000...) of bioflux.
No mixing for autoshipping currently :|
P. S. Land logi network should have enough items for at least 1 rocket in stock to make it work too.

Yeah I saw viewtopic.php?f=6&t=118510&start=20 now and it's just not possible yet. Yay, more micromanaging!

One can set an custom payload to have the rocket launch with only 100 bioflux if one doesn't want to ship 1000 for a full rocket
