Water being delivered to pod hangars
Maybe it's being used for something and i can't tell, but i occasionally get logistic requests to deliver water to to mining/building pod hangars and sometimes shuttle bays. If i turn logistics off and on it will go away, but otherwise the water gets delivered and just seems to sit in the inventory forever unused.

Hi!

The water is used to create oxygen in the hangars for pods/shuttles. =)

I thought that might be the case, but i've got logistics disabled for them and they are all still at 1000 max oxygen regardless? How are they getting refilled if they aren't getting water?

Both my pod hangars and the pods themselves as well as the shuttle bay and shuttle are all at max oxygen despite having no water being delivered to them which is why i thought the water wasn't doing anything.

EDIT: Watched my mining pod come back with depleted oxygen, it refilled instantly at the pod hangar, the pod hangar then refilled itself despite having no water in its inventory. Do they refill from the ships oxygen and only ask for water if there isn't enough?

EDIT2: This seems to be the case, had a mining pod come back that almost emptied out the pod hangar oxygen, this triggered the water delivery, but the pod hangar refilled itself quickly anyways, at which point i could toggle the logisitic request for water and it would go away.

The intention seems to be that you could build hangars in areas without oxygen but it seems redundant otherwise. It's not really a big deal, i just got used to min/maxing logistic requests with the brutal mining base start and turning off anything that wasn't needed so i left as few resources behind as possible so it just bugs me seeing water getting delivered to hangars when they don't seem to require it.
Yes they refill automatically. And that is the case, that you can build pod hangars and shuttles in no O2 zones.
Previously you had to manually take the shuttle/pod to an airlock every time from a no O2 zone in order to refill them. (I had one shuttle in a no O2 zone in certain runs. With pods it is harder to do. Builders were especially bad in this regard. But miners when they were getting only ore from destroyed asteroids could also be bad.)
