auto land doesn't always work

Nice auto lander got my hauler blown up. I decided to take a bio break on the one time the autolander decided not to work and I got blown up inside of goddard for trespassing which is just insane. Another bug for the books. So again I am broke. Just got enough to get the stupid hauler again and the auto lander only to have it blown up by a dad gum bug. just makes me wanna quit all over again. I can't seem to get ahead. Either it's getting killed by an ass by a planet, or a bug at a station always seems to be with a full payload and back to 1000 creds and a sidewinder lol. Just seems to be the circle of life and pointlessness.
 
That bites, but for the record no automatic vehicle system is supposed to replace you. If you get nudged by another ship (player or NPC) it doesn't work right and expects you to step in. By the same token, cruise control isn't a good reason to have a short nap behind the wheel.

Wait until you're safely landed before that biobreak.
 
I wouldn't touch a docking computer if you paid me, I have seen the npcs docking...scary stuff!
If I crash I can't blame anyone or anything other than myself. If I used a DC I would still blame myself for trusting a toaster.
 
This is just like the story that makes the rounds every year or so about the Stella Award winning winnebago owner who put the vehicle on cruise control at 70mph, left the drivers seat to go into the kitchen and make a sammich... And then sues the manufacturer when the vehicle crashes
 
A lot of modern day gamers are quite lazy and if anything takes the slightest skill or effort, they would rather automate it and watch.

No no no no no, I'll have none of that! Modern gamers are the spearhead. The driving force behind self improvement and personal growth through challenge and first hand experience.......

Now where's that next auto save location and where did google park my car?

Is mine the first generation that is actually happy to be old, grateful in the knowledge we won't we be here much longer? ;)
