[Not Game breaking] Drills push each other their items if containers are full
Submitted
1. A drill (2xdrills) Ship with a container
2. container needs to be full
3. drills will push their items to each other, which results in flickering items/ores
I have the same bug
I had the same thing happen.
It looks like after the container directly connected to the drills is full, one drill will transfer its items to the other Drill until it is 100% full, and will then both drills will rapidly shift the items back and forth so rapidly that entering the drill to remove the items doesnt work because you cannot click on the items (ores in this case) before the item is shifted to the other container again.
I was able to fix this was to remove the conveyors connecting the drills, so that the items can be selected and manually transferred.
You can also add more storage for now or only have 1 drill. Since the sorters are not functional yet they were not able to prevent this either.
You can see in the attached video that despite being at 27% storage, because I directly connected the drills to the connector which is connected to the storage, it fills up the connector and then produces this bug with still empty storage present on the ship

i have this too. its the drills being bugged. when the drills are full it causes the problem.
workaround:
when drills are full turn them off
you can now scroll inventory
manually move ore from drill to cargo.
turn drills back on to continue mining
repeat process until cargo is full

Haven't finished my mining ship yet, but I would call drills shifting to other drills on full cargo a good thing. The PAM mining script for SE1 does this. It's call balancing so you can keep drilling until the drills are also full

The conveyors don't empty the drills; the drills return the ore to each other.
With only 2 kg of ore and a container at 3%
