Supply Lines need some kind of sort function and resource type limiter.

Supply lines do not manage inventory at all. Since I can only have one direct-from-ship resource loader and I have my outposts producing more than one resource, the loader is effectively useless because it gets filled up with just one item, such as iron or aluminum, and has nothing else. This wouldn't be the end of the world, but the same problem applies to in-system landing pads. Again, not the end of the world since you can build three of them, but then the inter-system landing pad has the same problem, and this one can't be fixed. I want to set up complex supply lines. The game clearly wants me to be able to set them up if I want to, but without some way to balance the resource flow, supply lines with more than one link are practically unfeasible.

Is there a feature I am unaware of that fixes this, or are there mods that fix this already?

Nothing yet.

Please, yes, please a sort system.

Even something as basic as setting one kind of resource to be accepted by a storage would help. Doing this manually is just annoying as hell. No idea what resources I actually have already, etc.

I'm building up a factory site in order to easily venture out, and make sure my base is producing whatever is needed, but my main bottleneck is sorting everything manually. It would already be a great help to have storages able to be set to one specific resource only, so the main feed from the ship-transfer can have some sort of sorting opposed to none.
