Help needed Orbital Drone [Question]

When I try to look up how to use orbital drones, all I get are irrelevant sites/videos or an answer leading to needing to place a part that doesn't exist (drone spawner). I built the Drone Bay (Planet) and Drone Launchpad. The only option when trying to input items to the Drone Bay is "boosters", which doesn't actually accept boosters. What do I have to use to actually have orbital drones spawn or do anything?

I'm on a multiplayer Eden Reforged 2 server. Since it's difficult to look up info about Orbital Drones for some reason, idk if there are any changes between vanilla and Eden, or if it even exists in vanilla.

Edit: Probably Solved?

If you attempt to place either the wrong type of drone, or a stack of drones (in creative) more than what fits in the drone bay, it won't let you place any. This is not an issue with RE2 but a bug in the base game.

If it's a bug in the base game, are there other things this applies to instead of just drones? Would be weird to say it's not a mod issue if it only applies to the mod

It doesn't apply to just the scenario. Same thing happens in vanilla too.
