So i have never had this problem before but im trying to send my resources from the extractor to the space port. but no matter what it keeps telling me the distance is too short and congested. I am doing the same thing i have always done and just done with a previous planet but this planet alone keeps saying this no matter how far i place the space port from the extractor, Can anyone help me with this please. and i have tried moving the space port way out away from the extractor but tells me the same

Here is a screen shot of what im working with.

The link is overloaded from what I can see. You need to upgrade it if you have the skills.

Because extraction rate isn't dependent on number of heads, it's about placement and level of resources available on the planet. All of which vary from planet to planet and planet usage/extraction.

The 9 extractor heads you're using on this planet are pulling in more resources than the 10 you're using on the other. Your resource extraction rate is a function of resource density in addition to the placement/number of your extraction heads.

If its a set give it a couple of weeks and you could most likely install the 10th head as the hot stops are depleted.
