[boskid][1.1.103] Burner mining drill drops on wrong side of belt

Post by Shadowlords »

Inconsistent behavior of burner mining drill compared to electric drill and inserter.
Found three orientations where the burner drill drops on the wrong side of the belt compared to other entities, this seems inconsistent with every other orientation.

Thanks for the report. Issue is now fixed for 2.0.

Issue is related to floating point errors when computing drop position: for directions other than North the drop vector from prototype gets rotated by "90/180/270" degrees but not quite exactly causing the drop vector to no longer be pointing at a belt center and so the default resolution of "center goes to right lane" does not apply.
