Cargo landing pads and requester chests have this feature and it's odd that space platforms don't
In my case it I wanted to set requests for my promethium ship to request biter eggs only when all the promethium science packs on the ship are sent down.
Because this is not possible I had to do a work around on Nauvis to block all my rocket silos from sending biter eggs if there are enough promethium packs on the planet. But this is less intuitive and an inferior solution

Re: Set requests for space platform hub via circuit signals
Being able to set requests via circuit conditions would be very cool, but what about a different paradigm? You can set the schedule to tell the platform to unload to a planet or not. What if you could have a setting in the schedule to tell the platform whether or not it could request from the planet? Then for example you could request a load of biter eggs, move to the next stop in the schedule which does not allow requests, the next stop to pick up eggs and then depart for the shattered planet? Lots of new ways to shoot yourself in the foot oops I forgot to allow loading uranium fuel cells at Nauvis...
