[2.1]Can't get to work inter-platform logistics

Post by 470lm »

I got two platforms above Nauvis, but I can't get certain items to exchange between each other, namely (for now) cargo bays and space platform foundations. I can send asteroid chunks, but for some reason the other two aren't getting detected or something (assuming) since the game says "Available on platforms : 0", despite the other platform having 700+ foundations available.

I changed the request options from Platforms to All, back and forth, changed the minimum request amount, but nothing seems to work. I can only exchange asteroid chunks, nothing else...

Screenshots would help a lot.
Have you enabled "unload" in the schedule?

Uncheck "Auto request missing construction materials" on the Sender platform. Items which have an active Request (even at 0 quantity) will not be auto-sent to other Platforms.

Good Luck!
