RUN TESTS and experiment to learn how the game actually works before diving into a long game. Try some drops from all the directions offered and see what works and doesn't work before what doesn't becomes a "bug" report. Remember also that ground fire can influence how well , or not a drop goes

Thank you for the tip, but I have not reported a bug here.
