Drills in an endless loop pulling/pushing ores.

The drills I think are causing some kind of loop where they are constantly trying to pull ores into them instead of pushing the ores out and I think it's causing some lag. I often have to turn the drills off in order to clear their inventory.

I like this feedback

I found a workaround for this. If you shut down the ship (press Y) the shuffling of ore stops, and you can move it out of the drills into cargo.

Is it the same issue as this topic?

Yes, I believe so. When connected to another grid, I can move the ore just fine. Otherwise, it keeps jumping between the drills (unless I shut down the ship).

There were multiple reports of similar conveyor push bugs which were recently merged into this one: https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers2/pc/topic/50577-ores-in-the-drill-getting-stuck-and-or-moving-between-cargo-and-drill

It is flagged as solved with comment that fix should be shipped as a part of VS2.2 release.

Is VS2.2 still to be released, right? Do we know when?
