There is but ONE thing this challenge scenario needs to make it the best challenge scenario out of the lot of them...
A Timer.
Please FD, add a timer to the Docking Practice Challenge. It's all about practising docking technique, and you don't necessarily need to do that quickly, but to make it an actual challenge scenario, I'd say it need the following tweaks:
- 5 second countdown
- Timer that stops when you're successfully on the pad
- Tracking for your 5 previous best times
- MAYBE a platform specific leaderboard or even a community-wide leaderboard. Either that or simply a note to say what the community's current best time is.
- Achievement/Trophy with a witty speed docking related name for docking in under X-time (maybe open this one up to the community to suggest a reasonably achievable but difficult to hit speed docking time.)
If those other things are a big no, then at the very least, it has to be the timer. I'm pretty sure I heard Ed or someone say before 2.3 came out that there was a "speed docking challenge scenario" added... But this ain't no speed docking.
Cheers.
