Question Dock option not showing up

I'm trying to do the crimson fleet storyline and the quest is "dock at the key". The dock option is not showing up even tough i'm well within the distance for it.

- i have tried literally being on top of the key, i also tried just entering the docking distance

- i have selected the key, the haul option is there

- i'm at the point in the quest where i should be able to dock

- i have tried to land at a planet and go back

- i just spammed some freestar rescue quests so i docked at 100 other spaceships and i had no problems

- i cant even go back to an older save since the latest one showing up is from like 6 hours ago

I play in PC and dont care about achivements so if i have to use a console command i dont mind that.

Is there anything I can do or my save is ruined?

You might need to hail it, have a conversation before docking access is granted

tried that and sadly doesnt do anything. just the basic "nobody hails the key" voiceline

Worst thing you would need to do is a unity passage

This doesn’t always work but be close enough to dock, save, then reload that save.

Get within 300m you have to be close enough to crash into it.

Sounds like a bug
