I was playing on Arig for a while and got bored hand-crafting things, so I wanted to manually drop materials from my ship to the surface, but it turned out that that isn't the default. Thankfully, I saw this setting and checked it off and reloaded my save. However when I loaded it up and tried to drop some materials down, I get the message in the console telling me that the drop had to be aborted.

Is this setting supposed to do anything? Or does it have a different meaning than the label intends to describe?

Thats a bug, ill fixed it :)

Fixed!

Amazing, thank you!

This is supposed to be in 1.1.3? I downloaded that and the checkbox is checked, it unfortunately still doesn't work.

Yeah, thats weird, it works on my side, are you using any other mods?

Oh yea, a lot of mods 😅 I'll try to figure out what might be causing it, but to be honest I might just use a console command to research the cargo drop tech and call it a day

Oh, ok. The setting just enables and hides it so it's really weird that it does nothing on your side

I'm having the same problem, play normally and research everything possible but the cargo drop tech remain grey for me (does not show up on tech-tree) and ticking the option does nothing. I try disable every other mod and still nothing happen.
