Advanced Rotor does not match standard Rotor's displacement range

Strikethrough shared this bug 37 days ago
Reported

When attaching a small rotor head to the large advanced rotor, it is attached too close to the advanced rotor body. At +2cm of displacement the small rotor head is experiencing a physics collision with the large advanced rotor base. The standard rotor base does not experience this collision until -3cm, leaving a 5cm difference in displacement before collision. This means that spawning a small rotor head on an advanced rotor immediately increases the risk of clang.

Furthermore, the advanced rotor displacement does not reach out as far as the standard rotor's does:6f805b29dab7eb71413bd4269f3155ea

Fig 1: Rotors with large heads (left group) and small heads (right group). Each group has an advanced rotor (left rotor in group) and a regular rotor (right rotor in group).

This makes subgrid clearance harder to adjust while maintaining an inventory connection. One work around is to use a hinge, but that locks the alignment in a way that cannot be adjusted, thus making some projector weld jobs impossible.
