docking abort by script?

Post by Commander McLane »

Is there a way to make a station abort all docking procedures by script? Or at least a workaround? What if I would send a DOCKING_COMPLETE or DOCKING_ABORTED to the station's AI?

Launch a ship using station.launchShipWithRole and abortAllDockings true. Then immediately delete it.

Alternatively, scan around for ships with dockingAI.plist as their current AI, and send their AIs a DOCKING_ABORTED message.

Thanks! I had completely forgotten about the optional parameter. I guess because I haven't used it before. :D
