[Genhis][2.0.6] Asteroid collector arms turn invisible

Post by Gergely »

TLDR: Asteroid collector arms become invisible when the collector itself is off screen, even if the arms are on screen.

Reproduction
  • Enter remote view and visit a moving space platform.
  • Center the camera on the top edge of a front-facing asteroid collector's collection area.
  • Zoom in completely, and adjust the camera to make sure the collector is completely off screen.
  • Wait for asteroid chunks to fly by, that the collector should be collecting.
(I tested with Uncommon collectors.)

Expected
Arm is visible and collects the asteroid chunks.

Observed
Asteroid chunks "pop" out of existence with no visible arm.

I will look into this. It's simply the result of the entity itself being just the collector box.

This is possibly related, or might even be the same bug:

While building asteroid collectors, the visualization for collection range also disappears when a collector goes off-screen.
