Inventory push bug with drills

When using the pre-built "Bullfrog" miner from a quest, the ship reports "inventory full" prematurely, and judging by the way the inventory screen is having a seizure, I think the two drills are pushing into each other's inventory as fast as they can. The result is that one drill is completely full, while the other is empty, but it moves so quickly that neither can collect new ore.

For extra fun, both drills are ignoring other blocks with empty inventories - one of the cargo containers and the connector. Only one container and the cockpit gets filled by the drills. Materials can be moved between them all, so it's not a conveyor problem.

Finally when all this inventory pushing is happening, the list in the menu moves around too quickly to be able to drag the ore out of whichever drill has it this game tick. This can only be worked around by turning off the drills so they stop pushing to each other. Please also stop this dynamic inventory list sorting. It's very distracting even in normal use to have the container you were trying to fill jump away after you place the first item in it.

Fix i found was to grind down the drill. I ended up getting the full amount plus some extra. Almost like the drill tried to take in some extra ore that it cannot take due to inventory space in the drill.
