Will this be seeing a 2.1 update? Loved using it in 2.0 so I could set Vulcanus as my default pickup planet.
+1, being able to have the "empty filter" as default would be a lifesaver for non-nauvis main base runs!
Guys, I've created a fork of the original and made it v2.1 compatible - https://mods.factorio.com/mod/SetDefaultImportPlanet2. Please let me know if it works for you. The changes required were quite minimal.
Unfortunately it seems that default to "any" planet cannot be set (as setting it to nil will default to "nauvis"). There is just no value in the API to mean "any planet" in the item prototype.
