Docking


Frolonov2

Suggestion

1. use different key for dock and undock, so that an object would not get undock right after being docked. Or undock after holding the key for 3 seconds. Or disable undock for 3 second once docked.

2. allow stations to form a chain. Currently 2 connected stations cannot be docked by other ship or station, only a central station with multiple docks could dock several other stations.

3. allow goods to travel through docked stations, or allow all docked stations to access all cargo bays within the system. Currently goods could only be sent to an adjacent station, which makes it difficult to set up a complete supply chain. A simple way might be consider all cargo bays of all docked stations as a single one, otherwise the number of goods sent by automatic delivery needs to be increase(maybe up to 1,000 items each time?) so that stations could fully utilize their production capability instead of being limited by cargo inflow and outflow.

4. allow dock-to-dock alignment and distance detection, make it easier for stations/ships to dock each other.

5. allow station to use transporter to interact with traders so they don't have to struggle to get close to their target station which is surrounded by several other stations. This is important for traders with a large ship.
