My platform is stopped over Nauvis and the correct "Import from" planet is selected. I have more than enough ammo in my logistics network and "automatic requests from space platform" is checked. The ammo gets loaded on the rocket but it never takes off. I can deliver it manually fine. I've tried messing with the custom minimum payload but no matter what I try it doesn't work.

Thank you for reporting the issue. Your science platform wants 500 uranium ammo but it doesn't have enough space, so the rockets can't launch. I guess rockets shouldn't even request the items if there is not enough space.

I had the same issue but mine was because of a the group logistics. I forgot I had 3 other space platforms with the same group and 1 of them was currently over nauvis where I was also trying to load up a brand new platform.

If you hover over the request somewhere it will say what platform the rocket is going too. That's how I ultimately figured it out.

I 2nd the if there is no space on the platform don't request the stuff for launch. I don't remember if there was a "no space" alert for the full platform or not. That would be handy to have too if there isn't one already.

Thanks, I didn't even think to check my 2nd platform, that indeed was the issue. I guess not everyone keeps their platforms fully loaded

So when I toggle requests on my no-inventory-space platform, an alert appears for a few seconds and then goes away. Maybe this is related to why logistics robots deliver items to the rockets even when there's no space available on the platforms?
