So, guys, I am in Colonia, engineering things.... And I was (auto) docking at Tolagarf.s Junkyard, an asteroid station....
I was not paying attention, surfing on Net in other monitor, when I heard explosion sounds - and I panicked !
I was in my Vette, some 5,8 k shields, so "what the hell ?! " I thought - I am attacked ? Looking back at the screen, I saw I was stuck in the envelope, "making love", hard way, with a poor T9 NPC.... lots of hugs, you know ....
The T9 then start making those sounds we hear before a fatal explosion, fireworks everywhere, and I was scared the next thing will be the fraking station to open fire on me and pop by Vette also....
But then I noticed I was in "auto-docking" sequence.... all my efforts to push ahead, back, up, down, were futile.... last second I pressed "x" in keyboard and re-instate the auto-docking - just in time, because the poor T9 went KABOOOM !
My Vette then jump inside, resume the docking, no warning, fine or bounty from station..... just the remains of poor T9 floating around....
Is not the first time I hit the envelope in Asteroid bases, using "autodock" but is very rare in a Vette ( the bug affects more the Cutter or Beluga) - but is the FIRST time for me to watch a big ship popping like that because the station mess-up badly the docking sequence....
Thanks to my shields, the damage was minimal for me.... on the other hand, the T9 was very low on shields or shieldless, I suppose...
Do you guys ever experienced such bug, in Colonia ? .... to see 2 big ships "crushing" each other when passing the envelope, in autodocking sequence ? And one of them exploding in process ?
