Cross-planet delivery that just works.

Moving goods between planets means babysitting platform schedules and cargo requests by hand. Planet Express does it for you. Enrol a few cargo ships, tell each planet what it needs, and the mod finds the goods, picks a ship, and flies them over — no schedule micromanagement, ever.

And it plays fair: it only sets your platforms' schedules and requests. Real rockets do the lifting, so nothing is spawned, teleported, or conjured out of thin air.

How it works

1. A planet's Cargo Landing Pad asks for what it wants — just like vanilla.
2. Planet Express finds another planet with spare stock.
3. It sends whichever of your ships will get there soonest, and brings back anything the source still needs on the way home.

You build the ships and rockets; the mod just does the planning.

Features

• Set it and forget it — enrol ships once, and deliveries run themselves
• Smart dispatch — sends the ship that'll arrive soonest, and learns each ship's real speed over a trip or two instead of guessing
• You set the rules — keep a reserve before a planet exports, bump an item's priority, or pin a favourite ship to a route
• Round trips — ships bring cargo back instead of flying home empty
• Your fleet at a glance — a little panel in the top-left shows how many ships are working, idle, or stuck, with a live ETA on whatever's in flight
• Never wonder why — the Monitor lists every ship and shows exactly what each planet is waiting on, and why
• Hold for your own signal — wire up a circuit and a ship waits at its hub until your "ready" signal says go, handy for topping off fuel or ammo first
• Keep ships for yourself — reserve any platform for manual use, or limit which planets it visits
• Hands off when you want — edit a ship's schedule yourself and the mod leaves it alone
• Quality friendly — handles every quality tier
• Built for multiplayer

Getting started

1. Research Interplanetary Trade Logistics
2. Open a Space Platform Hub → Fleet tab → tick Enroll this platform in the merchant fleet
3. Open a planet's Cargo Landing Pad → Trade tab → choose what it should import
4. Done — ships start flying. Watch them in the top-left panel, or click it for the full Monitor.

Requires

Factorio 2.0 + Space Age

What does "stuck" mean?

A ship is only stuck if it can't move — out of fuel, out of rockets, or blocked. If a planet simply doesn't have the goods yet, that's not stuck; the Monitor shows it as "waiting". Refuel a stuck ship and it sorts itself out on the next run.
