Planet Request Group

Automatically sets the "Import from" filter to the planets specified in the logistic section name.
For example, naming a logistic section like this:

[planet=fulgora] Exports

will automatically set Fulgora as the "Import from" filter for all items in that section whenever the space platform is in Fulgora’s orbit.

(Note that standard Factorio internally replaces text like [planet=fulgora] with icons. You do not need to actually type this part - just select the planet from icon selector when naming the logistic section.)

You can add multiple planets to the section name to allow imports from any of those planets.

Using the "Anything" signal in the section name specifies the inverse - meaning the space platform will import items from any planet except those listed in the section name.

Logistic sections managed by the mod will have all their items’ "Import from" set to "Solar system edge" to effectively disable them.
To avoid conflicts between different stations the mod creates a temporary logistic section that exists only while platform is requesting items.

Mod updates are triggered only when a space platform arrives at some planet.
