rock spawns when digging with drill + piston + rotor

Matthieu Raynaud de Fitte shared this bug 5 years ago
Outdated

Context : I am playing on an experimental server and when using a combination of drills, pistons and rotors, a rock tends to spawn, breaking everything.

The black rock does not spawn if I only dig with drills and pistons on my ship / base

When the rock spawns, it pushes everything aside, witch breaks my machines

The rock does not yield any resources when drilled and re-spans if drilled completly

It spawns where the surface of whatever I am digging is supposed to be

It will spawn regardless if I am digging in dirt, ice or rock


Is this a known issue ? Is there anything I can do about it ?

I have a similar bug in dedicated server. Players mine with fixed drills instead of drills on rotors and pistons. A dark grey triangular voxel often spawns while mining. It's extremely tough, nearly unbreakable, causing many stucks and damages.

Same thing happened to me.

I created a large grid mining ship. The odd thing is, it was working fine at first. I took it back to base to make a few enhancments and then it started to bug out on me. Grey voxels would appear, get mined, then reappear. Mined with ship or by hand drill the voxels always returned if the last bit was mined.

One thing that might help; One of the enhancments I made was adding lights. I had a total of 12 spot lights all going to light up the hole I was digging. When I turned all but two of them off the problem stopped.


Also the editor on the website isn't working. I can't see the text I've typed. Used an exteral program to write this up.

i had no issues with drills + pistons only ... util I increased the speed a bit too much. Maybe it's because the rotation causes the drills to go over the voxels too quickly ?

in any case, I had no issues at all while drilling at 0.09 m/s with pistons, everythong broke when I tryed doing 0.135 m/s ( 50% more speed )
