bug? ships flying to anchor point of station before going to a dock

Post by Vertigo 7 »

So I've got this weird plot where the anchor point is in a bottom corner. I made it that way on purpose. The s/m dock is more towards the middle of the plot. So, I've been watching the defense drones and when they're returning to the station, they fly to the anchor point, often times right by the dock before turning around and heading to the dock. I think this is also the problem folks have been having with the player HQ because the anchor point is right in the middle of the rock so ships take a super long time to dock.

Could the AI or script or whatever it is be altered so that docking ships fly to the closest point of the plot perimeter first then fly to the dock instead of the anchor point? Maybe for navigation purposes > 20km from station, fly to anchor, < 20km fly to plot perimeter, inside plot, fly to dock? Just a thought...
