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 within that section whenever the space platform is in Fulgora’s orbit.

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 will specify the inverse - meaning the space platform will import items from any planet except those listed in the section name.

Sections that are managed by this mod would be automatically disabled and are assumed to be always active. Otherwise it's impossible to correctly handle multiple platforms using the same logistic group.

Mod avoids conflicts between different stations by creating a new temporary logistic section whenever station is requesting items.

Mod updates are only triggered for space platforms arriving at some planet.
