Attached docks

? Offline

Hi there.
I made docks for custom base not biult-in in station core, thinking that they will work being attached as sattelites to core with “parent” entry, but this idea failed.
All HPs on the dock CMP placed correctly, also tried writing “type = STATION” is solararch and writing “dock_with” in system ini:

solararch:
[Solar]
nickname = new_yard
ids_name = 60235
ids_info = 60236
type = STATION
DA_archetype = solar\Mod\Bases\newyard_f.cmp
material_library = solar\Mod\Bases\newyard_f.mat
material_library = fx\envmapbasic.mat
envmap_material = envmapbasic
LODranges = 0, 150000
mass = 10000.000000
docking_sphere = berth, HpDockMountA, 4.500000
docking_sphere = berth, HpDockMountB, 4.500000
solar_radius = 60
shape_name = NNM_SM_COMMUNICATIONS
hit_pts = 999999961690316250000000000000000000.000000

system:
[Object]
nickname = Ew04_new_yard_01
ids_name = 0
ids_info = 0
rotate = 0, 0, 0
pos = 11232, -567, -1898
archetype = new_yard
dock_with = Ew04_01_Base
base = Ew04_01_Base
parent = Ew04_01
reputation = gd_z_grp

Such a question: is it possible to make ship to dock to attached docks, not making them a separate stations?

No, you would have to put the dock points on the parent station.

Is it an only possible thing?
I can make docks as stations with same name as main station and dockable to same room, but it won’t be a good materialisation of idea.

As far as I know conventional modding, and I would say I know a lot about it, this is the only solution.
Additional solutions are just makeable with FL Hook.

So, there’re a working plugin to unable this?
