Description

After updating to prerelease build 1569 Drill-O Matic drills give the message "no ground contact" unless they are placed at right angles.

How to reproduce:
Create a ship with a Drill-O Matic part in any normal layout.
Land the ship on a body (tried minimus and Kerbin)
Extend the drill

If the drill is at right angles (as in the screen shots) it will extend correctly.

History

#1 Updated by SchroedingersHat over 7 years ago

Additionally the drill-o matic (when placed at right angles so it will extend) and the drill-o matic jr (when placed normally) give an "Insufficient power" message when started no matter what batteries or cooling is available on the ship.

#2 Updated by SchroedingersHat over 7 years ago

This message happens when there is no ore storage available, both drills work when there is an ore tank, although the drill-o matic still needs to be placed sideways
