Hey could you make a blueprint of this?

Haha, there's a weird proximity thing that requires you to use upward thrust along with foreward or aft thrust as well at the same time. Haven't been able to figure that one out!

Check the limits on the gangway piston, max should be 7m and min should be 4m. There's a strange bug that makes the minimum limit some ridiculous number.

Oh I forgot to mention that once the gangways are raised they won't lower.
Also not enough thrusters to lift the Danubes off the pad.

Awesome!

I think that is part of some crazy piston physics. I've done that before too. The current build I have saved (not yet published) turned the piston doors into a regular door modded for small ships to keep that from happening.

I just reloaded this world and the Type 9 shuttle went crazy as if it didn't have gyros or thrusters to stabilise it. Weird.
It did this as I tried to enter it.

*CURSE THE 1000 CHARACTER LIMIT!*

I'll have to go back in a troubleshoot again. As far as the shuttles needing thrusters forward, I noticed that the mod used has recently been broken down to not include the large thrusters I had originally used. It will require adding another mod pack for the appropriate thrusters.

I appreciate the feedback.

The hangar doors can...have only been (now that I think of it)...remote controlled. Smart me would have probably put a button on the exterior.

I noticed that since the last few updates, a lot of the button panel functions for the station have reset. I don't know if you guys are seeing those problems. Additionally, the pistons that operate the gangway (stairs to the doors) ALWAYS reset to some ridiculous value on the minimum position. It's set at 4 meters, then I save, reload the world and find the distance can be anywhere from 40 to 4000 meters (adding zeroes for the fun of it maybe?). That requires remoting into the station and resetting the lower value back down to 4 to get them to function.

(con)...

I notice there is no way inside, might wanna look into that, otherwise awesome world, though the Danubes need more thrusters facing forward I noticed. I'm also unsure what operates the stairs that let you into the Danubes.

Haha, thanks man. I still need to finish this build!
