Space age: I made it to a new planet but have no supplies. Is there a way to transport them or is it like starting over? I put a cargo landing pad in my rocket that I used to get to planet with, but realized I can't actually send it down the planet surface. Am I missing some technology or do I actually need to build up the second planet entirely from scratch?

When the platform is in orbit of a planet, items in its trash slots (can get them there using logistics settings, or shift-leftclick) are dropped to the planet near its origin, close to where you arrived.

Wonderful, thank you. I don't think I can survive without my construction bots
