BUG? infinite ore without yields?

Hola!

I'm slightly lost as to how the layout of the forum is, so i'm hoping this is the proper way to post something we're experiencing.
Currently me and some friends are playing a multiplayer, aiming for a mega base fueled by trains.
Now, since we want to have as much throughput as possible, we decided to add the infinite ore's. (and added donuts for shapes, regretting that part).

Anyway, all the regular ore in the patch is gone, i hook up sulfuric acid and the miners start to move.
Literally that is also the only thing they do, move. They do not seem to yield any ore's.
Also when hovering over a patch of ore, it will state a yield without a number?

What am i missing here? why do they consume sulfuric acid, but do not actually mine any ore's?
This happens with all type of bob's ore's. The coal infinite ore's do not require sulfuric acid and thus do not seem to be affected?

Please check if you are on latest Factorio version. There was a bug in base game few versions ago that would make infinite ores that are below 100% not mine properly.

tested this today, and confirmed.
Fixed in .27 (upgraded to .28 anyway to get the additional fixes)

I, too, am less than impressed by the donut-shapes. I run Ab with RSO installed, and I'm curious if you do as well to have gotten the same result.
