Bug #25677
Comet Harvester not working
100%
Description
I grabbed onto a comet with a vessel.
"Start Comet Harvester" does not do anything, I also don't get an information what's wrong or missing in the PAW.
I then cheated the exact same vehicle to the same comet and attached it, it works.
Then I transfered crew to the new vehicle, scuttled the old and then the new vehicle exhibits the same weird behavior.

Second craft file without mods. This is the one that worked at first but then did not after detaching the older one.

Confirmed. Drill works normally when grabbing an Asteroid. Grabbing a Comet, the drill moves briefly and then stops.

Created an account to say ME TOO and this should be moved up in priority. Cheated a rendezvous with two different comets in this craft and once attached, the drill lowers, says "harvest comet", starts for half-second then quits, does not mine any ore. I troubleshooted any issues including contact locations and angles. Tried this craft with two other asteroids and it works fine.
The save file has one miner attached to a comet that's leaving the system and two attached to an asteroid orbiting Ike.
There's also an error with naming the comets. once I attached my craft it went from comet S-something to a random asteroid name. Mods used in craft, none. Mods used in game EVE, Lynx. Career mode not part of contract. Have not tried in other modes or as mission.

I think the problem is that the comet harvester copied the ImpactRange from the mini drill rather than from the large drill's asteroid harvester (1.5 rather than 5). .../GameData/Squad/Parts/Resources/RadialDrill/RadialDrill.cfg line 135

I did test this and the range seems to be an issue here.
Please consider this screenshot:

I was able to harvest a comet in 1.10.1
Anyone else can confirm that it is fixed?

Seems fixed for me too.
