#[BETA] Bug: Looting items from fabricator results in raw materials, not items. -0.6.5.607713

So this only seems to happen for items in the fabricator’s bucket. For any items that fall out of the collection bin, those can be picked up without issue.
Yup, I have run into this as well, was going to report this but since already, here is the video I was going to submit.
So, fabricator on the ship doesn’t appear to have this issue. Only the ones I have in POIs like Lazarus.
The one on my ship did it to me also, so any fabricator I've used does the same thing. I lose the first item since normally I hold E down to loot the first one, and then stand there and "catch" all the rest of them. So I found I just have to make it from my build menu, and have my caretaker make that first item when I'm standing at where I'm building.
Is your ship moored or anchored?
Wonder if it has anything to do with being connected to a POI. Mine is anchored, to avoid some of the issues with mooring and getting stuck under the dock
Yeah I normally us the mooring cables to bring my boat close, then I remove them and then anchor, had too many times that my boat did that and get stuck under the dock or under ladders, etc. I also remove those curb bumpers as well and either throw them to the side somewhere or scrap them, since they are what usually give me the most headache. I tried to stick them to the side of my boat and they don't seem to help.
I found if you grab the items as they fall before they hit the ground, you’ll loot the item and not the material. It seems as though the material loot is somehow tied to the object sitting on the floor or ground of the POI. Holding E to loot all works as a minor workaround, although the fabricator in my ship works like normal. Items fall in the ground in the ship, I can then loot those items. My issue was only with the fabricators in the POIs like the 2 at Lazarus. But midair looting them does work.
