some fighters will not dock with mothership!!!

[mmdoran1]

is anyone else having this problem. i give a "dock at..." order to my fighter wing and 1 or 2 of the fighters dont dock. they just sit motionless in space. even after re issuing the command they just sit there. theyre all assigned to the same wing and have my m7 deimos as thier home base. any ideas on how to get around this annoyance.

You're providing a bit less informations. How many docking slots has the Deimos and how many ships trying to dock at their homebase?

Hi,

Assuming there are enough slots for all fighters to dock... This is an old 'bug' from Reunion. Basically if the ship trying to land approaches the carrier a from the wrong angle it seems to confuse the autopilot and they freeze and don't dock.

Normally just asking the carrier to move a little triggers the 'stuck' ships to dock, either that or give the ships try to dock the order to follow the carrier and then reissue the dock command. That usually sorts it for me.

Cheers,

Scoob.

when giving the command to a wing of 6 m3s to dock in an m7 diemos ith 6 hanger bays, 1 or 2 fighters will sit motionless less than 2 km from m7.

I had the same thing happening myself. ..

What solved it for me was to move the "mothership" a little .. (like a few km forward and then to give them the order again.)

I am guessing the fighters wont dock cause the ai cant find a solution for a flawless aproach
