Orbital Spacedock - 587

Specially designed to service the Kaibon Class Navy Frigate by Dolan https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2386576566, one of many orbital repair and refueling stations around.

Features and Functions:

This Station is not supposed to be used for fighting and or flying around, but for fast repair and refueling the aforementioned Kaibon Frigate. Both functions are linked on Level 3.

Flying instructions:
Fly in from the rear of the station (the station complex on the starboard side of your vessel) and lock onto the landing trigger. Lower your antennas and fly in slowly till 0 Km is shown on your range, automatic docking will trigger and your ship should be placed exactly in the right spot for service.

I know it is hard to get into the right spot but I tried it before reuploading the station and it did work fine for me...please make sure to lower your antenna masts! (alt fire with the Kaibon)

Airlock (red button) on the exterior only opens if the docking tunnel (blue button) is extended and (at best) attached to the Kaibon starboard airlock. The interior Airlock door can be locked open from inside the station, if you come from the outside, it will close automatically. In fact, all doors close automatically after a set time, so no need to close them manually.

The station is layerd in 3 levels.
The main level is the docking and cargo/refinery area. A cargo crane and exterior door is present here.
The next level is a small living space for up to 12 workers (in 2 shifts) and a seperate quarter for the station manager.
The last level is the command area. Here you can press them shiny buttons to start tanking the docked ship, switch on the exterior lights for the repair crews and watch several cameras around the station to get a better overview of the damage as well as a cam to help the navigator of the incomming ship to steer.
