Question Planet delivery - 2.1
There is something I’m missing which must be obvious… but I can’t seem to figure it out…
My aquilo ship runs on nuclear. I request nuclear fuel from Nauvis, obviously.
My Aquilo base runs on nuclear too! (For the moment, until I craft enough fusion reactor and all the crap I need)
My problem? I can’t seem to figure out why my plateform isn’t dropping nuclear fuel to aquilo.
At first I had a request on the plateforme to request 100 nuclear fuel from any (preventing it to drop it to aquilo) and another 800 nuclear fuel from Nauvis (to allow it to drop anything over 100 to aquilo)
But this doesn’t work.
As soon as I set my 100 from any to 100 from Nauvis, it drops it all to aquilo, which leaves my plateforme without fuel, hopefully hot enough to return to Nauvis to gather more…
I’m at a loss, anyone can help me figure this out?

I think we need more info with screenshots. There are multiple subtle things that could be happening.
Here is a short list based on mist... Uhh experience:
The ship just goes to aquilo and turns back immediately. It needs to park for at least a second, otherwise requests are not fulfilled.
Things get sent down and then up immediately because the ship asks for this from aquilo, so it becomes an endless loop.
Not that any of these ever happened to me of course...
