A space platform will not request items from a planet unless the request and the supply is enough to fill a rocket. The exception is items requested for building the platform itself.
You cannot use the same platform to move an item from planet A to planet B while at yhe same time requesting to have this item onboard. For example, on Vulcanus I produce those big mining drills, which I want transported to Nauvis in large numbers. However, big mining drills is also part of the “Production” logistics group that I have set to be picked from Nauvis. The result is that the platform picks up all the drills it wants on Vulcanus but drops none of them down to Nauvis, even though the amount wanted on board is much much smaller. Disabling the production logistics group solved this, so that it doesn’t request the same item from Nauvis after dropping it off.
A big field of land mines is an easy way of defeating the demolisher early on.
You can throw excess stone in Vulcanus back into the lava sea
If you’re running low on ice/water on Fulgora, you can create a dedicated space platform parked in orbit to produce and drop ice.
Excess concrete on Fulgora is going to be needed on Aquilo. Br8ng as much as you can pack!

The “custom minimum payload” checkbox lets you override this. It lets you directly choose how full you consider a “minimum filled rocket” is for any of your requests. I tend to set this to 1 when I’m in a, “screw rocket efficiency, top me off to this exact number, damn the consequences” mood.

Derp, I never noticed that one. Thank you!
