My Magpie is stuck in a docking loop - Worked around.

Post by user1679 » Sat, 10. Apr 21, 13:05

I have my Magpie's default orders set to Sector Automine (Second Contact). I noticed it was just sitting in a dock with the following orders:

Dock And Wait [Auto](executing)
Collect Resources

So I canecled the "dock and wait" and it changed to "undocking" then a few seconds later it switched back to:

Dock [Auto][critical]
Dock And Wait
Collect Resources

I tried unassigning the pilot, resetting default behavior, "remove all orders and assignments", and even giving it an order to pick up a resource probe. But for some reason it docks immediately after undocking. It has no damage and the cargo is only 1/4 full. In fact it doesn't even clear the docking bay before it switches from "undocking" to "dock [critical]".

Actually, I fixed it by letting it dock, taking control and manually undocking, clearing the orders and then giving it back to my pilot. If it happens again, I will save it and send it.
