Expected behaviour or bug in betweenplataforms trade?

[Ogro]

I created a new space platform and requested stuff from another one that is in orbit, the request could not see the items in the platform that was there before. So I send the platform with he stuff to another planet and then back to same planet after a second to test it, and then its inventory show up for the new platform.

It is an easy fix, but the issue is the new platform is a satellite (no engines) and there are other old satellites whose inventories do not show and I can't send them away.

Anyone else encountered this? Is that a bug? I closed the game and will report if it auto fixes next time I load it up.

EDIT UPDATE:
Quitting the application and relaunching didn't help.
Save file attached now.
I am trying to get the space platform ground tiles from the science satellite to the new storage only satellite. But I can't see them. I had the same issue when trying to do the same with the new ship SS gleba, but when I did the send away and back trick it worked.

Platforms with an active Request for an Item will not provide it to other Platforms. All of your Platforms have "Auto request missing construction materials" checked; but they still have a (zero-quantity) request for Space platform foundation.

Met auto-requests are cleared when departing/arriving Planets; therefore the extra Platform items become available to send to other Platforms in your "workaround".

Just un-check the Auto request box if you want to manually create such requests.

You are right! Thank you eugenekay

I wonder why they keep at 0 instead of dropping off, but now I get what is going on =]

I have a similar problem with this though. For me its the creation of an automated Buffer Station.
Imagine Items A-Z arriving on 10 diff ships in Nauvis Orbit
A Big stationary Plattform also in Nauvis Orbit

The Station needs to request the different items (from the ships) to store them, to either let the planet or new other ships (for example to supply aquilo) request them.
But as long as the station has the request set from plattforms, it will not distribute to other stations as said, even when the request is fulfilled, if its active its blocks the distribution in any way.

Only workaround i saw is that the request and distribution need to be seperate so with the planet in between, since then planet and station requests are seperate due to import from planet only and the supply dropping to the planet with the hub requestion things and supplying it to buffer chests.
Yet this again needs a planet with rockets as intermediate, which for example doesnt work at space locations without a planet.

Am i just blind or is there no solution to this yet due to limits in transfer mechanic?
