	~~2.1 is planned to release in experimental towards the end of June 2026, with a stable release by the end of summer 2026.~~ [https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-~~440~~]		* Space Logistics Improvements [https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-441]
			** When a [[space platform]] is requesting construction materials from the planet, a rocket silo will request the number of items actually needed for construction, instead of a rocketful of each item requested.
			** When a space platform requests many different items for construction (such as when the player pastes a complex space platform blueprint), the space platform will prioritize requesting [[space platform foundation]] and [[cargo bay]]s before other materials.
			** Mods are now able to modify a [[rocket silo]]'s weight capacity.

			* Space Platform Improvements
			** When requesting an item from a planet, space platforms will now attempt to request it from ''all'' planets by default. There is now an optional filter to request an item from one specific planet.
			** Space platforms will now always wait until all of its orbital drop slots are empty before leaving a planet.
			** Platforms can now request items from the planet they are orbiting and/or other platforms in orbit around the same planet. All platforms have a checkbox in their UI to specify if they can deliver to other platforms or not.

			* Circuit network additions
			** Space platform requests can now be set by the circuit network
			** [[Radar]] can now specify a "universe" channel to transmit to. Signals passed to the radar can be picked up by all other radars set to the same channel, even if they are located on a different planet or space platform.
