Docking Computers turning Cloak On (1.70)

Post by LittleBear »

When SHIFT + C docking with a non-main station (Rock Hermits, Space Bars etc), my docking computers are often turning on my cloak and heading away from the dockable object at full speed. I seem to remember one of the Devs saying that SHIFT + C docking switches the player entity into dockingAI. I haven't had a look at the dockingAI on 1.70 yet, but its almost as if I'm being switched into a performFlee. Very Odd!

If this happens again, it would be helpful if you made sure you had no target, pressed shift-H and checked in the log what the player’s AI is. I don’t think dockingAI.plist has changed, but it may be that the wrong AI is being used.
