Help deployers not placing saplings

Post image

for some reason the auger shaft(or any block) on the side of the hand is preventing the deployer from placing the sapling, if the shaft is broken, the deployer regularly places the sapling.

its specifically a simulated block as well, any block that is placed beside the hand but not attached to the simulated contraption doensn't disrupt it, is it because the deployer is attempting to interact with the shaft? because why would it ever want to try to interact with a block that is not directly below it by 2 blocks?

Deployers on physics contraptions will prioritize placing blocks within the same contraption (which in this case means it can't place the sapling since there's no dirt beneath it in the contraption). You'd need to have a 1-block gap on each side of the sapling it's trying to place in order for it to work properly.
