[SV DLC] Tractor beam sometimes pushes asteroid chunks with items away - Change in a future build.

I've seen this one from 3.0 beta, where if an asteroid drops items, like spacefly eggs or lodestone, pressing O for tractor beam sometimes pushes these boxes away.

Do you have a savegame which demonstrates this?

Start new game (e.g. Enterpreneur, there are asteroids nearby), find an asteroid, enable scan mode, shoot orange things until one of them drops loot, try collecting said loot. It'll be pushed away. I was under the impression that this was by design?..

Yeah this one is pretty easy to observe. Just load any game, get a mining ship from Argon Prime Wharf, and manually pilot it to blow up 1-2 asteroids with resources. The asteroid chunks with spacefly eggs etc will be repelled by the tractor beam. I don't see why this would be intended.

I used a medium mining ship.

This will be fixed in an upcoming patch.
