If only commodity trader and ammor refilling would be available while transport is hanging moored to the fixture...

I am guessing it was changed to this to prevent the death on undocking that was common on some larger ships, but that is only speculation.

As cool and 'realistic' as it might be to spend thirty seconds backing away from the mooring fixture, and sloooooooowly turning around (or just flying straight through it), all it's accomplished is everyone flying into a planet and dying.

I dunno what you're implying about the "Dying" thing (citing the ships you've used would help fix this; since I NEVER had this happen on my Lib Dready), but I -can- tell you I somewhat agree that the facing-the-planet-then-SLOWLY-turning is pretty annoying. Would be better if the ship was facing opposite the planet on the get-go.

I've had smaller transports be caught in the middle of the atmosphere, unable to reverse in time for the game to give me control (and vulnerability)

With my trains it's a 50/50 chance, but they're, at least, armored enough to survive a split second in the atmosphere.

@Saronsen

Smaller transports? Interesting... On what specific mooring fixtures have your ships kerploded?

From my guess, these dockdives can be caused by a few things:
1.) lag (if this is the case, it's just bad luck then)
2.) improperly distanced/placed mooring fixtures
3.) inherent size of the ship

Its got to be lag... and possibly F2 spamming.

I run a Shetland all over Sirius and dock on all kinds of planets with no problem whatsoever.

But if there is lag between when you undock and when you regain control of your ship then sure, you could drift into the atmosphere.

Pretty much every planet that has the miscoded undock, and you fly straight into the planet, before reversing out of it.

I am flying a large number of different ships and NEVER had that.
