What you are seeing is a copy-pasted turret mount that had been sat there for about 10 minutes or so. Upon flying to the underside of the ship, the mirrored version is not present on the bottom of the ship until the camera flies very close to where it is supposed to be.

When building on large ships, it should be the chunks reflect the change to the ship without having to fly closer to force the chunks to reload themselves.

Because I am unsure if this is by design or a bug, I'd thought i'd submit it here just in case.

Steps to reproduce
  • Build or source any suitably large vessel. something with a large width or length will do fine, EG, Tshara's Burning Amber in size will do but anything thats large. Including space stations
  • Place a mirror plane that allows you to be some distance from the chunks where the mirrored change will occur
  • Place down a template or a cube of material and zoom out from the ship. If the point where it is being mirrored to is too far away, then you will see just 1 cube appear.
  • Fly closer to where the other mirrored cube/template should be. There should be significant and noticeable Pop-in of the feature
