Rocket turret & Heating tower default import planet should be Gleba

Post by fi5hii »

TL;DR
The default planet for rocket turret and heating tower that shows up when setting up requests in the orbital requests should be Gleba.

What?
When you are requesting a heating tower or a rocket turret on a space platform, the default planet should be Gleba and not Nauvis since the item is Gleba's tech.
Pictures of the current default planet being Nauvis:

Why?
Because both of those are Gleba techs and it would be more unified with the rest of the game design and idea. Usually when unlocking them you make the first assembly of them on Gleba and Export them from there (at least I do). For example the capture bot rocket's default import is gleba (I never make them there but makes sense, gleba tech, gleba ingredients - bioflux)

The rocket turret for example takes carbon fiber and is unlocked by agricultural science. The heating tower doesn't really need anything from Gleba specifically to craft but is a trigger tech of Gleba so in my opinion it would make sense to have it there, just like the fusion cell from Aquilo. The fusion cell can very much be crafted on Nauvis if you really wanted to but the default import planet is Aquilo (the tech origin). In general making these changes would make the game feel more unified with it having the same way to preference default planet by origin of tech. It would also prevent accidental moments of "I requested 20 heating towers why are they not on my space platform?" "oh right I didn't change the planet to gleba" at the early stages of the game.
