. . .

Well, in addition to this being a rather useless post (There are better ways of alerting people to this kind of problem), the answer is also very simple.

Either a) Try re-docking, or b) Hit F1 and "swich characters" to the stuck character. Those should get you unstuck.

This is the real true story of rock and roll; it was not about anything more then, how to live your life, as a gangster, in sartorial splendor, and turning the world into a place where normality would never return again...- Malcolm McLaren

Not the first time, and I'm sure it won't be the last. We've all been there, stuck in the
tunnel. Think I have a screen shot somewhere of Virus recently, in the same predicament.
F1, and char change, always works. This is also not the only base it will happen on from
time to time. No biggy.

I forgot to reply to it earlier, I already helped him out of the station with that trick, Due to the odd shape and use of several objects in it though he was having trouble getting out with the F1 trick so I went out there and walked him through the steps and told him where to sit inside the station before F1'ing.

And noone else in-game was assisting, and I had no direct contact with an admin. :)

Oh here is a tip, as I know it'll happen to you eventually. In certain stations when undocking with something the size of a transport or larger, you'll get stuck on the large cylinder popping out of the top of the station. Just engage cruise at those times and eventually you just slide out of the station.

With my large train on FP11, its a little harder. If you strafe, you go nowhere. If you hit cruise, you go nowhere, so you have to go backwards and strafe at the same time to get out, but once you do get out, its not really a big deal.

The problem with this, was it was a new player, and he was in a starflier, those tips mentioned before got him killed when he tried to use them to exit the station. Which is why I had to go to the station and sit by it with the thinest wall he could pass through, and have him F1 out. Only other solution to having me assist him in this way would have been having an administrator move his ship to another station.

Yeah, I flew my Cylon Raider in that place. T'was fun to fly around the inside of a station for 5 minutes. Then it got old. I got out when I tried, though.
