Two ships that I own, Ship A my main starting ship a 2057 Testudo Dream Passenger Shuttle, and Ship B a 2055 Testudo Class 14 Inspection Capsule (Pod).

  1. Purchased ship B. Planning to refurb and sell.
  2. Docked Ship A to Ship B. Did repairs, undocked to salvage other ships and bring parts back a few times. Got Ship B basic flight ready. Only missing a transponder (don't have yet) and an antenna (do have). Ship A of course does have a transponder installed, powered, and switched on.
  3. Undocked Ship B from Ship A (Ostranaut in Ship B) to do outside repairs and install the antenna. Completed repairs/install.
  4. Attempted to re-dock Ship B to Ship A (Ostranaut still in ship B), given clearance denied message, reason, no transponder.

I think that shouldn't matter since I own both ships? Further, there isn't anyone in Ship A to basically deny clearance other than the automated computer.

*Extra note: It appears that the shuttle service also is not able to dock to Ship B? The ETA comes and goes without a ship arriving or anything happening (haven't used it yet otherwise so I'm not sure if it's a physical thing or just a loading screen kind of thing).

Can provide save if needed!

Try to post a save with a google drive link, or other site link if you can. sometimes saves are too large to directly upload.

#

in the mean time you can ignore shuttles I think if you use the rescue button.

Looks like it works, I'm not a dev but they'll see it in the future I'm sure!

workaround: use P.A.S.S to move to your second ship, then dock from there if it is capable of moving/docking.
