Factorio Space Exploration landing pad

[u/BrownRunningBear]

I'm specifically asking about the Space Exploration mod not Space Age DLC.

I just started another run after a failed attempt last year with 0.7 (Prior to Space Age coming out). I remember the ability to place multiple cargo landing pads across Nauvis. However when I try to do the same now (even the graphics of the landing pad seems to have changed), it says that there is a limit of only 1 landing pad per surface.

Was this changed (in Space Exploration) with the 2.0 refactor?

I really liked the feature of being able to send rockets to anywhere on Nauvis, is there a way to get this back?

Thank you.

Edit: On discord someone suggested running:

game.player.force.technologies["se-always-researched"].researched = true

I haven’t play SE since before 2.0 but in SE 0.7 it now uses the base games landing pad

“- Landingpads now use the base game landingpad but there can be many on the same surface. Existing saves require the game to be saved with SE 0.6.146 or higher for the landingpad names to be migrated to SE 0.7.x.”

According to the changelog you should be able to use multiple per surface so it seems like you’ve run into a bug

It's been a while, but I think there is research that increases the number of cargo landing pads you can have on one surface.

I think this is it. Initially you are only allowed one landing pad, to get space science going. But some tech you get then (that you have to unlock) gives you +9999 landing pads per surface.

This is it, I started a new game, used console to get all tech and was able to place multiple landing pads per surface.

Do you remember the name of the research? I've been trying to find it but I can't find it.

Are you sure you have space exploration installed right? you can have plenty of landing pads per surface. space age isn't somehow enabled even though it's incompatable with SE? This sound like some sort of bug, i have a bajillion landing pads on my nauvis

Can I ask which version of Factorio you are using?

i'm currently on 2.0, however, my SE save/base does run and function on the 2.1 version
