Docking

Post by DavidPratt »

Every time I dock, I have to wait ages for traffic. Is there any way of speeding this up?

Try Shift-C - insta-docking! Or disable Docking Clearance Protocol - F2, Game Options.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

There is a time acceleration in developer releases, up to 16x but there are drawbacks like decreased accuracy of calculations and increased CPU demand which result lower frame rates.

Moreover your request motivated me to make [wiki]ILS[/wiki] available for NPCs, most ships can dock faster from now if you install this equipment package.
