This topic is a request to allow Space Platforms to teleport, either allowing write access to the space_location of Space Platforms or adding a new function to change it. Some good alternatives (for me):

• Creation of temporary Space Connections which can be travelled upon as normal for specific Space Platforms.
• Allowing the enabling of Space Connections at runtime for specific Space Platforms

The above features are for a new mod I'm making which adds hundreds of new star systems and planets, creating a galaxy.

+1, this would be sick.

Which one?
The feature, or the mod?
Though, I personally think that both would be great!

+1, I find current space platform API unusually restrictive for modding. It's feel like playing standard space age using lua

This interface request still hasn't even been replied to by the developers or moderators.

Calm down, it's only been 1.5 months. Even most years-old requests here don't have dev replies.

+1, this. Space platforms feel kinda restrictive, especially not being able to read/write distance traveled.

+1, i've been running into issues workshopping a mod for platform docking and this is one of the major roadblocks preventing proper implementation
