Hi. I wanted to create a Legendary spaceship using only Legendary materials
I got some Space platform foundations and it turns out that you can't place them.
Only normal quality can be placed even if you select legendary foundations as blueprint in space - it will place normal ones if you have them.
If no normal platforms available - nothing will be placed.
Having a legendary ship could be an achievement on its own

Placed tiles cannot store quality, because of how the map data works. You can't place quality tiles on the ground because they revert to normal when you pick them up and too many people complained that their legendary platforms were destroyed by accident that way.
