Destruction / self destruct: No respawn in last docked station?

[iFred]

Did anyone find this change in the changelog? Is that a new feature of 3.0? Re-Spawning at the nearest station?

I believe to remember they mentioned that somwhere during the beta, that its not in the changelog does not mean much. Some other changes where forgotton to put in there too.

I just died by Thargoid and my only options were to respawn at asselus primus my starter station 232ly away from where I last docked

As far as I recall, assuming you're clean, the new mechanic is that if you die in a system with a Starport, you'll respawn at that Starport.
If there's no Starport in the system, you'll respawn at your last docked Starport.

If you die while wanted, you'll respawn at the nearest Detention Facility where you'll be forced to pay off your stuff before being allowed to leave.
