Bug #10158
Retractable radiators don't rotate/offset around center
10%
Description
When snapping the large and small retractable radiators to the grid, they don't align properly. Also if you rotate them they rotate around a point that isn't centered with the part model. These are both easily noticeable when placing them on Ibeams. I've noticed this bug ever since they where added.
1. Place a retractable radiator on an Ibeam
2. Rotate and offset (Absolute offset, not local) the radiator and watch how it doesn't rotate around it's center and how it offsets unaligned to the grid.

It's always best to include a picture. And it's not the large radiator, it's the medium-sized one.
This is only a visual issue, and has no effect on gameplay, so that makes it Very Low priority, according to the priority chart. It's up to the devs as to which bug reports they choose to fix on any particular day, so there is no knowing when they might choose to fix this one.

That makes sense, sadly. Many thanks for the picture Bewing, I wasn't able to add one at the time. It seems as though many other parts from this time have off-centered models as well, namely the medium ore tank and converter, as well as the Communotron DTS-M1 antenna.
