    Docking has been a problem with the Rebel ships from day 1 (except for the B-Wing). They seem to pass right through the stations docking collar several times and make maybe 6 or 8 attempts befor they finally dock.

    I though this might be due to the low mass of the tiny ship models and the relativly high acceleration rates. However, now that the acceleration values of all the ships are significantly reduced, the problem is still there.

    I’m beginning to wonder if this may be an issue with the dockports on the stations themselves?
    Is it possible to load the models (for example in lightwave) to actually see the dockport positions? or do you moddler guys have any other tricks that might help resolve this issue.

    It’s very important that a player can dock for repair and reload without worrying about getting shot while his ship is buzzing back and forth trying to make the connection.
