Title. Plasma cutters aren't useful for mining as your exosuit won't pick up loose ores. This also goes for any ores the drill 'missed' AFAIK it doesn't pick up every ore it drills.
Exosuits w/ an ore box should automatically place ores they drive over into their onboard ore box which is how they work on every non-Bay server.
Steps to reproduce
Get into an exosuit w/ an ore box in the hydraulic clamp and a plasma cutter, try to mine some ores, be disappointed.
Length of time in which bug has been known to occur
Likely since BayMechs have existed.
Client version, Server revision & Game ID
N/A for the above reason.

When the drill runs it checks for an ore box and then adds the ore to the ore box.
The simplest way to fix this would be to make the mech check for ore on the tile it moves onto on as well/instead, as long as it's carrying an ore box. Might not be the most elegant way though.
That's what Tg does and is probably the best solution really. I think there's a performance issue with the drill that causes the server to stop for a few seconds on each use too, not sure if it's related.
