Text Bug With Docking

Sometimes, when you request docking permission at more than 8km, they tell you to approach to 7,500m and then ask for permissions. Thing is, I have asked for permissions at 8km and received them. TINY bug, I know, but I think a 2 second fix will get this done :D

UPDATE: Just got perms from 8.5km from Kirk Market, Cheneti.

Indeed, if I pop out of SC at 9km and request permission, it's fine. If I cruise out to 10km and ask, they tell you to approach to 7.5km, but you can usually request it way before that. Methinks it's the canned response for "docker too far" that was used for outputs, being reused for stations but not with the correct, increased, distance requirement.

I don't think thats a bug, I think it's just a bit of leeway in the distance. it would be annoying if it refused you at 7.501km

Depends on the type of station too I think. Certainly the round ones (orbis, coriolis) seem to have more leeway that the "outdoor" landing ones.
