[Quendrakon]

It's likely because all the docking bay pads are full in the mode you are playing. Switching to a different mode would be the quickest way to get a pad.

is it you're unable to request a docking pad? as in the option to request isn't showing?

if so, make sure you're checking under the "Contacts" tab and not "Navigation"

god knows how many times i've done that
