Can there be more added to this?
Similar ring but instead of merge block it only has merge at "corner" but "side" is connector (for conveyors) and have an adapter that goes onto ship and has 4 ports all facing same direction (above, below, and both sides of door) or even have a "side <-> conveyor adapter" so it has similar model but has bigger base to cover conveyor it is attached to while staying airtight. This would work closer to how nasa currently does it by using the "docking port" to run hoses through to next compartment.

Had anyone made a ship or station using this mod yet?

it does work, just didnt understand the instructions at first i was trying to connect it to just the ring lol

I believe so yes, I haven't tried it in quite a while.

does this still work? looks cool!

Can it be also small ship variant? Like L-connectors to S3x3-connector.
Doesent matter if it will be 50x50 placeing. I wondering use it on my small-grid hotdrop ship.

Roses, I think a Magnetic Connection like Landing Gear would be a better setup over a Merge connection, also having a conveyor connection through the door along with a Vent and Floor/Ceiling Ring Pierce would make it a usable airlock.

Yep, exactly what Lance said.

After you turn them off, you may need to turn your ship into an actual ship.

Just to make sure something isn't messing up. Is the only way to detach them by turning them off?

uhhhh between 250 and 300
it’s been running fine though

I had the idea it might be something to do with how the clamps hold the ship in place like a connector would so in order to make contact I have to move the ship
but that gives it a nonzero velocity which the game doesn’t like when it tries to convert to a station

How many mods are in your world?

is there any way to make the game not crash when i dock a ship
if anyone else is having that issue

could just be the amount of mods and stuff in the world idk

How do you unclamp from the station? cause whenever I tried to leave, the clamps didnt open

Yep! 🙂

Alright, good to hear!

nothing will break and you can switch freely :)

If I switch to this version, will it update blocks in existing constructions, or will they break?

yes

Does this function as a merge block?

I may have the answer, i was merging with a station which was likely causing my ship to convert to a station when i docked, gotta test.

Question, the ring appears to freeze a ship in place after turning it off. Is there a fix?

Lol to save anyone else the sitting and playing with it. Both sides need 4 clamps.

I'll look into it and see if some tags are missing, I totally forgot to check.

Yup this mod works.😁

SEM4 nice of you to bring this one back, looking forward to it being able to be reskinned aswell, keep up the great work as always ;)

Your tickling me here. Please say it works..

I have a list of mods from back in the day that would be amazing now.

I played with the old one before i noticed it was broken. Built an entire station around this type of docking. Thank you so much for fixing it. I will post up my station when i have it fixed.

I'll ask Lionel if I can, but no promises. 😀

@Dragon Fire 813 and SEModder4 awesome work and thank you for bringing these back. I am happy to have these lost works back.

Perchance could look at reviving this mod (and possibly make skin compatible?)
