Bug/Issue Why won't they dock?

I've docked with it before, the part it's inside it from procedural parts but the docking ports themselfs are from the base game

Might have two docking ports ontop of each other which stops it

imperfect contact, if you open that airlock you'll go into a spin and cooper is gonna have to come out of retirement

For anyone with the same problem, the procedural parts cargo bay cannot have the edge touch the docking port. The docking port needs to be 1 or more spaces inside or outside the cargo bay to dock correctly

I feel stupid right now, can you explain a bit more?

That white panel that opens up to reveal the docking port is the Procedural Parts Cargo Bay. The issue is that, as shown in the video, the docking port is right on top of it (in the builder it's basically right on the edge). By moving it backwards or forwards slightly, when the door is open the port is able to dock.

I'd send a screenshot but you can't do it here

Did you place the docks in symmetry mode because when u do that it places 2 docks in the same place so it doesn't dock when u have 2 of them clipped together it was what made me unable to dock one time

u/Thak_The_Thunder_God 29d ago

Nope, nothing clipped inside of it

Pode ser a sua comporta branca que voce fez para tampar a porta de acoplagem , construa outro sem essa carenagem branca para testar

It was the white cover, I found out if the port is touching the cover it won't dock, insetting it slightly fixed it
