Ship Grinders should collect floating objects

Ship grinders will grind down blocks and store the components, such as steel plates and bulletproof glass, but they cannot collect free-floating objects/components. This can lead to situations where grinders cannot collect loose scrap metal floating around inside a damaged ship, or a grinder that has filled inventory will leave excess components lying around and cannot pick them up later when inventory space is freed up. Intriguingly, drills do collect all kinds of floating objects, from ore to bottles.


Like drills, grinders should be able to pick up floating objects such as components whenever they're in range. This would allow them to be used for bulk salvaging and cleanup, without needing drills to assist or leaving the engineer to pick things up by hand.

For what it's worth, there are Collectors you might want to intersperse between grinders.
