Any way to dock an Armored Transport?

  • Some custom stations are nearly impossible to dock with if you have a slow ship like the Armored Transport. I line up the ship with the bay almost perfectly but at 40-50m from the bay the ship flies up above the station. After that it just bounces around the station with no chance of docking. Is there any trick to dock it?


    P.S. I let the ship for about 10min hoping it will find it's way. It did not :( .

  • Get it sticked with the place it has to moor.... like, nearly colliding the moor tower of the station, and it should work.

    Chars: [CFPD]Michael~something (x25), [CFPD]~SQMS~{[(store)]} (x3), [CFPD]xfer, Event~Manager~Michael, StarfIier~EM~Michael, Event_Team_2, [GR]Michael[SP] and a blueprint of [CFPD]Sephirothis

  • I've tried that, with varied success. The most successful method I've found was to close in to within 0m of the station and attempt a dock. Sometimes the freighter docks sideways (once it even backed in to the airlock :)) ) but at least it docks :).
