This stopped working in either 1.1.2 or 1.1.3-

I am guessing it broke in 1.1.2 because of the following "fix":

Looks like Auto Targeting MIssiles and Mining Lasers are using the same trigger to end their cycle :(

Lasers are still not shutting off properly.

Yeah, they seem to shut off if you move out of range and lose target, but not if the rock gets destroyed. As far as I know, that part has always been the case.
The only change that's been made is the shutting off the lasers if you drift out and lose target. Probably because it meant you could time it to go out of range to drop off, then creep back into range before your lasers finished and still get full payload.

They actually patched it in the 1.1 patch so that the lasers shut off if the rock was no longer present. On one of the small patches after it, they broke it again :(
