[2.0.23] Platform drops tiny partial-rockets when full-load available.

Post by Chumfactor »

My space platform is dropping 15-30 iron plate at a time to a cargo landing pad requesting 1000 when there are 3000+ available on the platform.

Cargo pad's request:

This happens every time the platform comes back around to Nauvus.

Oddly, other drops (ex: science from other planets) drop a full-rocket-load at a time. It's just iron-plate that exhibits this odd behaviour.

Weird/silly workaround:
If I do the following, the 1000-load eventually drops, but not as-expected, given other-drop behaviours.

1) I Manually queue orbital drop of 10-stacks (1000) iron plate. NOTE: This does not drop!
2) I wait a minute or two and grumble about why it's not dropping. (Unclear if the grumbling is important in this step ;) )
3) I DEQUEUE the 10-stacks, putting them back into platform inventory.
...At this point, a few seconds later, a whole rocket full of 1000 plate is delivered.

This is, as one might guess, less-automated than I would hope. <G>

P.S. On preview, the images are the same, despite having different file names. But that's a forum bug, not a game bug. ;) The platform image eventually displays at the end.

Also experiment with disabling some/all unfulfillable requests, to see whether it changes things; maybe it's the same/related to 123212 Space platforms not dropping requested items / 122321 Not all rockets launching when ready.
