Drill o matic - Bugged and stuck with first location's stats?

[barwick11]

I landed a few ships a few different times on minmus, and they mined just fine, got a decent ore return in a reasonable amount of time. This time, I landed a miner for a fuel platform in orbit around Minmus, and it got a horrific return. I went so far as to send another orbital scanner out to see the spots I should land, I tried in monochrome light spots, no change, tried in dark spots, no change. Literally 5 different spots, no change. Even the last one, I landed within 700m of my other miner that's getting like 20x the ore return.

The only difference between the miners (mining wise) is the # of small ore tanks. The one that works better has 6 ore tanks. The one that sucks balls has 1 ore tank. None of them get filled up though, because the ISRU is using all the ore without problem just as fast as it comes in.

Is there some kind of bug where the first spot you mine with, the drill stays stuck mining at that rate or something?

Edit: Just saw the engineer level is a 5x multiplier... the engineer on board is a level 0. The mining rig that sucks is unmanned.

Nevermind, it's the 5x multiplier for having a horrible engineer onboard vs having no engineer at all.
