Ores in the drill getting stuck and or moving between cargo and drill
Submitted
I build a ship with 4 drills, in between mining the drills deside to not give the ores in the cargo. Instead they get full and when i try to move the ore they quickly move between cargo and the drills around until my game crashes. Now my drills are locked up with ore and i cant move them.
I have the same bug You can't vote. Please authorize!

Yea I experienced the same thing in my playthrough, with 2 drills on the Sledge. You can see it the issue in my stream: https://www.youtube.com/live/sHHms4rhxE0?si=kYEJOVUzWNt-Ti-V&t=12096

just place a Cargo for the Drills to be Routed to instead of other Drills like placing a small cargo on the back of them

Powering off the ship stops the ores from moving around, making it possible to manually clear the drills.

I too found that if I hook the drill up to a converter connected to a cargo container, or to a small conveyor solves the problem. The problem seems to only happen when the drill is connected to a converted that is then connected to a large conveyor.

I'm having the same problem with a 4 drill ship I built from scratch. All four drills are feeding into the same medium cargo container (2 on each side connected to the 2 small conveyor ports). The drills completely fill up and don't want to deposit ore into the cargo container, and then the game crashes after about 10 seconds.

I've been playing around with it.
1) Large conveyor, converter, drill - This will fail every time.
2) Small conveyor with drill - This will fail sometimes.
3) Powering ship off and then transferring ores manually works 100% of the time.
4) This bug appears to happen when more than one drill shares a conveyor. It also effects the thruster sound which goes on an off rapidly at the same pace (sometimes). It's a hydrogen ship.
5) The same issue effects the mining ship the game gives us at the anomaly contract.
I have a drill ship with 10 drills:
The middle drill will fail between two other drills when it shares one or both of the other drill conveyors. The two outer drills began with their own small conveyors going to their own cargo. The center drill shares their conveyor. I tried all sorts of configurations; the center drill will need a private conveyor and cargo container to work.
The ship has7 other drills. Each of these 7 drills are setup with a medium cargo container, converter, and then drill. One of these drills fails every time. I've tripled checked that all of the welding was completed.
The issue with using Y is that there's another bug, harmless but a pain.

Something related is my drills bounce between each other when the cargo is full!

The conveyor code considers drills a destination when it should be considered a source only. A workaround WOULD HAVE BEEN to use sorters, I think, but we don't have functional sorters yet. Until this code is updated we will forever have shrodingers drills. Especially if you have multiple drills in the same conveyor network.

temporary workaround: power down drill, move cargo
