Inertia dampener issue?

[Corozon]

Hey all,

Yesterday I have encountered an issue and I'd like to know, if any of you have experienced this recently?

I'm running the latest stable version (1.166) and have a detachable drill module for a ship on an earthlike planet.

Now when I fly the ship without the drill I am able to hover without any effort (dampeners are on ofc), but when I attach the drill module, the ship is slowly descending. It seems, that the inertia dampeners are not considering the extra weight of the module (connection with Connector only, no merge block) and only trying to hover the ship base weight.

Last time I have used this ship (1.145 stable) I was able to hover with the module attached.

I'd like to point out, that the ship is able to bear the weight of the module, I am able to fly it and carry around more weight too, only hovering with dampeners are no longer possible, when the module is attached.

Any toughts or changes, that I may have missed?
Thank you in advance!

Is the connector locked and the module powered down?

The module does not have any power source, it gets power after connected to the main ship. It only consists of armor blocks, drills and the connector.

So yes, after I connect and lock I am able to carry it around, but seemingly its weight is not considered by the dampeners and they only try to damp the ship itself, not the structure as a whole.

Inertial dampening hasn't ever affected/accounted for anything attached by piston, rotor, or connector, to the best of my knowledge, It's annoying :(

Never said I'd played in that particular build. It's very possible that in that one build(Or for a few consecutive builds) they tried a change to make intertial dampers account for attached objects, and it was affecting performance or some such and was rolled back to how it was.
