[1.32] bug. Miners don't unload fully at player station

[Tadas]

Sometimes my miners don't unload fully at my station. Even if they have full cargo of ice, they only unload 7 units and go back to mining (storage is not full). Also they should unload multiple types of cargo at the same time if station uses it, which seems not to be the case. Problem starts when station starts using more than one type of ore.

Same for me. My Ice miner is unloading 119 units at a time. Then he's flying around for a minute or two before unloading the next 119 units.

And yes, I got a manager and also the required storage type and space.

My miners just load up to full and dont return it

Okay i found a solution (at least in my case):

The stations needs to have more credits than the miners cargo is worth to be able to collect all wares from its miner at once even if there shouldn't be any credits transferd since the miner belongs to the station. Befor i gave credits to the station it only had like 5k Cr left. Guess thats why only a small amount was transferd at once. Station and assigned miner share the same bank account and there seems to be a hiden credit-transaction on the bank account. Maybe it went something like this:

Station-Manger: "Well I need some ice, but i only have 4,5k CR. You, miner, give me 115 ice for that!"
Assigned miner: "Sure thing! Here you go!"

Miner transfers 115 ice to station. Station-Manger gives money to miner. Miner gives money back to Station Manager since it is assigned to his station (and especially the stations bank account). Miner flights of into space.

Station-Manger: "Oh look! One of my assigned miners just earned 4,5k CR!"
Station-Manger: "Well I need some ice, but i only have 4,5k CR. You, miner, give me 115 ice for that!"
..... and repeat!

Like i said my miners are working fine as long as their are enough credits on the bank account. So here a step by step guide on how I assigned my miners to the station:
1. Clear all tasks the miner may still have, unassign from any station, set default behavior to something other than "Auto-Mining".
2. Station's logic overview: It doesn't seem to metter if you are restricting trade with mining materials or not. If not restricted the manager will buy goods from NPCs as well. If restricted the stations only relies on its miners.
3. Transfer credits to the station (at least as much credits as the miners cargo is worth taken the buying-price of the logic overview).
4. Assign miner to station.
5. The miners default behavior should now be "Auto-Mining". The materials needed by the station should already be selected. Feel free to change the Max-Jumpgate-Setting.

My miners seem to forget they work for that station when they jump.

My miners are flighing around a bit after undocking or after they filled up their cargobay by mining until they figured out what to do next (sell to station or go mining again). Guess thats normal and it only takes half a minute. What do you mean with "they forget"?

Got this bug too.
Would be nice if this would be fixed in the next patch.

Just spent a few hours trying to get this to work. Removed all orders , dump wares, and then reassign. Have plenty of money in the station accounts. They happily mine, and then sit there after they fill up. Hopefully they fix this, gonna shelve the game for awhile, this was frustrating.
