For humans, yes, a button to tell the planet to automatically dump it's units out into space if they can be deployed would be great. For the AI it's a problem.

Mines never seem to get deployed around planets, but if they did auto-deploy then it would be even harder to get them out to other locations. Sats can be recovered, mines cannot.
What I intended was for only the
excess units to be launched.
EG: Planet completes construction of 5 Sats.
There is only cargo space for 2 of them, so two go into cargo, and three are launched into space so that the resources & time are not wasted.
Even if that happens to mines, its OK, since the mines that
are launched would not have existed otherwise.
EDIT: turned off sig.
