Not sure if it is a new bug, haven't played for a long time, so..
Some ships have really bright light source when docked to another ship. Possibly only timelines ship affected.
First I thought I have a video card issue, but then I found it is something like headlights.
When I have Xperimental Shuttle docked to my Falx, even the bridge of my Falx becomes really bright:

For example same location in space, same ship, Experimental undocked:

When I got to the docking pad, I found a ray of light coming from my Shuttle:

It seems if I undock a ship and then dock it back, if fixes the issue for some time:

I also found that if I put my Shuttle to the storage and back, the light appears again.
Later I found same issue with Xenon B, when docked to my Nomad, agian the light appears if put to storage and back, and fixed by undocking:

No mods, all DLCs.
Can provide a save file, if that helps.

Re: [7.50] BUG. Docked ship bright lights issue
all your reports should always have a save file if possible, just makes things easier and faster then devs asking you for one
99% of the time they need one anyway

Fixed ships getting spawned away from ship configuration menu at resupply ships from automatically getting deployables.

As Buzz2005 said, a save file would be appreciated, and is almost always needed, and even if it isn't, it's almost always helpful.

Re: [7.50] BUG. Docked ship bright lights issue
In a fresh save game i could not reproduce the light issue of the Xperimental or the Xenon B.
The ships lights turned off correctly after docking on the Falx.

Re: [7.50] BUG. Docked ship bright lights issue
This save has the bug present with the X shuttle, but I don't know how to recreate it. Most of the time I encountered the bug myself was when I was parking a Cutlass parked on the Sapporo.

Re: [7.50] BUG. Docked ship bright lights issue
Yes, sorry. Was going to upload a save, but got distracted with life and work routines
Here is my save:
https://cloud.zodcode.tech/s/NdgG8d8Q8jCdfa4
Player is on the docking platform of a Falx, facing docking terminal which has bright lights from the shuttle behind player, like on this screen - https://imgur.com/TySM7m9
Shuttle was recently recalled from the storage.
And this a continuation of a game I started long time ago, I believe somewhere after the Cradle of Humanity and before or may be at the time of release of the Tides.
Some additional information which could be useful:
Nvidia driver version 566.14 (2024.11.12)
DLSS on, performance mode
Screen 2560x1440, borderless
Hardware details should be in my signature.

Yes, undocking and docking back usually fixes the issue for me, the problem appears if a ship is recalled to surface from a storage.linolafett wrote: ↑Thu, 6. Mar 25, 17:44 In a fresh save game i could not reproduce the light issue of the Xperimental or the Xenon B.
