No,...just relieve them of there duties.
I'm sure there's someplace else they'd rather be,than looking down the nozzle of your marine's weapons.

If they'd stop buying M-size mines, and then flying through Pirate Sectors, I might find myself more inclined to be charitable. (Or if that accursed Carrack weren't in the way.)

ok

Ok, So I followed the advice.... The TL I was trying to hire was a albatross supply.... I decided to go to another teladi sector... Saw another supply TL.. would not let me hire it....

Ok, Then bought a paranid Hercules.. and flew it to another teladi sector.. I need a teladianium foundry... I instructed it to dock... It just kept saying landing in station, then back to idling... etc...

So I decided to manually do it.. I switched to the ship and tried to fly it in manually.. when I asked for permission to land, it said "Negative, you cannot initiate docking procedures at this moment" or something of that nature... I am confused... I wasted tons of times just trying to get this dumbass TL to land so I could buy my station.. I am about to quit...

What's your rep with Teladi? Or the station might just be full.

You might be able to get the station you want from another shipyard.

But otherwise,just wait for the dock to empty,if you are on trading terms with them.

Sounds like Rep is low, or that it's waiting for NPC's to dock. Try the EQD in that sector, or the military base. If you can at those, then it's the shipyard. If you can't, it's Rep.

i dont think its rep cuz I was able to dock my other ships there.... just not my herc.. I am Company Owner... maybe it is NPC... but I must have had it on an hour SETA time and it just continued to do the same thing.

If the station's large ship docks were all full, I think he would notice. Unless a whole bunch of really small M7s decided to take up residence at the station, the ships that typically dock at a shipyard are pretty huge. I wonder if the game has gotten confused and thinks it's full when it really isn't?

Sthakker, what is the exact message it's giving you when you try to dock??

Terran Atmo Lifters FTW! Those things got massive cargo holds and they conviently spawn like clockwork once you get in position. Need good mech and hack skills to cap it and probably a ship with Ion-Ds because they sometimes spawn with sentry lasers.
