My regular STTD seems to be flying into a station without asking for docking permission and then sheepishly exiting ... if I can. I seem to make this mistake a little too often and the last time it cost me around 1,000,000 cr, 600K in insurance for my Asp and the 400K cargo. I was ... miffed but hey, suck it up like a Thargoid, this is Dangerous. There is no "Load Commander (Y/N)" anymore!
My top rated STTD also involved my Asp and a type 7 I've got my eye on. My current goal is to trade up to the Type 7 and having spent a few hours recovering from the losses of the docking permission debacle, I thought I probably had enough to make the switch. I sold all my equipment and bought the type 7. I discovered I couldn't quite kit it out to the level I wanted, so sold it and re-bought the Asp which I strangely couldn't kit out to the level I wanted either. I of course forgot that while you can get back the money on equipment, you still lose 10% on the ship itself so that little mistake cost around 2 million, 3-4 hours work minimum (I'm just not as fast at the trading as some here).
Perhaps in addition to cargo insurance, the devs could consider stupidity insurance because ... I suspect I might not be done yet.
