Luxury Liner/ Prison Ship unplayable?

    There is a bug with the Luxury Liner/ Prison ship, it hungs up indefinitely around the trade line gate, after docking into it 80% of the tries to dock with it. But that is minor thingy, really. Why on Earth I can dock with West Point but cannot with any Freeport at all (npc TRAINS can dock with Freeports all the time). And what the titan of Intellect have thought that it is a good idea to not let the god damned PRISON ships to dock with PRISON stations. I mean, what in the name of the flying fuck?!

    The reason is the size of these ships. The FL engine is not build to handle correct maneuvering and docking of such ships considering that the docking points is extremely small compared to the ship size, their shield bubble and the AI collision calculation.


    Trains and transports are smaller and usually have less problems.

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

    Both these ships needs some experience for theirs usage. Some TLs first gates are hard to dock, but if you learn use 3rd person view (or turret in some cases) for proper ship positioning, then you will see that also these ships can nicely use TLs. Next to this have both liners strong shield resistant to cds, have very good strafe and plenty firepower from theirs build-in turrets. You definitely have real chance to avoid or kill attackers (included pvp) once you drive these nice ships.


    Prison ship as also Liner can dock in Alaska if you want sell pods.


    Both ships (as also trains) docks much smoother if you come to base from side where is dock point.
