Fix ships with missing docking ports, please! [Q&A GTS-6]

[theslay]

Well spotted. Clearly it's not quite right as it is; I just rather liked the idea that they vanished without trace.

new way to fix a bug: make them think,that it's intended.

"It's not a bug, it's a feature" is actually quite an old tactic

[Norsk]

That sounds like a bad joke CBJ...

Can confirm the docking port missing on some arawn too.

Just capped one and no docking icon, cant click on ship at all, just green square confirming it belongs to me but no dock icon at front.

Xenon K captured. Any idea how I can repair it? Or is this a bug wherein the capital ship is missing a landing platform? Can't assign captain or anything. If this is not a bug, please feel free to move it from here.

You can fix it, by editing save, and adding port by youself.

Fedhelm has none for sure, I've checked multiples.

I couldn't find one on the Hermod I saw but I haven't seen many so I'll try to keep an eye out, as I initially thought the Sequana had none, but it's just in an odd spot and you have to be very close for it to pop up.

Do you know the command string to add and or look for to correct this? I have an Arawn without a dockingbay

[SyberSmoke]

As a suggestion to the Devs, Obviously Capturing a K is possible. So what if instead of needing a captain, the marines turn off the AGI, apply a patch (As explained then went bonkers due to a bad update), and a new subsystem that shackles the AGI's capabilities. May be as an in port alteration?

Any idea how to do this? would love to get some ports on the ships i capped recently.

I am adding to the list of ships that when i Board and Capture they don't have a Dock(1.15)
Heavy Sul
Balor

[Sincerity]

It`s easy =)

Warning spoilers, bla bla!

Just look for string in your regular ship(with dock) like this:

Code: Select all

<connection connection="connection_dock_p01" macro="connection_dock_p01">

then copy from this string to

Code: Select all

</connection>

and paste it to "connections" section.

I play now with the new patch and the Heavy Sul has dock in front.
Balor has a landing spot between the bridge and antenna ( black circle).
If that helps.

So how and where to add the dock, and what to write there, so the xenon K will have dock

There comes a time when it gets ridiculous..
"They just vanished"? i wish the crapload of bugs would just vanish.
Dunno what you guys did the last 7 years, but it didnt work as "intended".
