Hello! Apologies for the issue, but thanks for the report!
A few questions though, since possibly it is working as intended, and may just need to be configured:
- What/which version are you presently using?
- Just confirming, you are not playing with
space-age, correct?
- What if any other mods are present?
And lastly for now, there should be two runtime settings available that can potentially affect the behavior you mentioned:
Automatically launch rockets with satellites
Rocket launch delay
Either disabling the first one, or extending the delay of the second should allow for science packs to be returned when launching satellites.
Do let me know if you have any further questions or encounter any additional issues.
Hey there! Sorry for the late reply;
Using the latest version
That is correct, we are NOT playing with Space Age
There are other mods present, mostly QoL, Better Robots Extended, Doing Things By Hand, Sonaxaton Infinite Resources, Squeak Through, Gore.
We did disable auto launch rockets with satellites and saw no change in behavior. I did not see an option for Rocket Launch delay (might have just overlooked it) so did not change that during our testing.
