I use FA off exclusively, but I've tried experimenting with fa on in large ships (clipper etc) and I've realised that FA on doesn't limit your turn speed to your ships ability to actually change its direction.

Once you get the landing radar, you then use your maneuvering thrusters, no more Pitching and rolling. Use main engines to get close to pad and very low down SLOWly and parallell to the pad facing the back of the station. Remember although you can land like you would a plane, that not how you would normally do it. Then you will see the position on the pad in the scanner, once all in the center it will change colour. Use these to slide left or right, forward or back for starters. Its really important that you have some buttons or keys mapped to your manouvering thrusters. (if you are too high, no landing indicator even when you are above the pad) When you are above the pad and low down, you get an indicator showing your ship above the pad. You dont want to be a splat mark on the back wall.Ĭome in well below the number close to the pad for starters facing the landing tower that is always just in front of the numbers and slow down. Lower the gear as soon as you are through the slot, This slows you down and adds safety by disabling you boost. You approach the pad from the side furthest away from the PAD number and come in over the top of the pad. The Bay number is at the BACK of the pad. If you are not facing the back wall you are going the wrong way. Move toward the pad slowly, you must be FACING the BACK of the station when you are touching down. If its not directly in front and below you, then roll left or right to have it appearing in front of you so you are lined up with the pad or the numbers. The blue dot will indicate if its to left, right above or below you. If you cant find it, look at the tiny radar indicator to the Left and just above your main scanner. OK so you have Requested docking from station and entered OK.īasic rules: come in through the slot slowly until you are used to it, Look for the designated pad number. If you are patient and practice this enough times, you'll get faster and more precise in a relatively short time.Ĭan you be more specific as to the issue you are having. Now just move downwards with the appropriate thruster. Don't roll or pitch! When you manage to stop with the red dot in the circle it should turn blue.
Now try to bring the dot into the circle just using the side thrusters and throttle. Now, if you positioned yourself roughly over the dock and facing the building site, it should not be hard to keep yourself horizontal relative to the dock. When you are close enough the radar will switch to the landing helper mode so you will see your ship, a circle with arrows pointing to it in the middle and a red dot connected to the bottom of your ship by a red beam. You have to land facing the building side. If you stop, give just a little not to overshoot the dock. Slowly fly to it, cutting back throttle as you approach. You should be able to turn to it and see the number fairly easily. When you are in, the position of your designated dock should be shown in your radar and the little blue indicator to it's left. I don't have too much trouble docking though so I think I can try to help at least.įirst, make sure you are flying with flight assist on (default is on). I'm also new so don't take this response too seriously.
