Again, it's not "my issues approaching planetary bases". It's my issues timing when to slow down and when to exit supercruise. I'm slowly getting better about it, in the sense that I now sometimes undershoot my destination by only 150 ks instead of always overshooting by 300 ms to a light year. Planetary base, orbital base, space station, McDonalds Space Restaurant, it doesn't matter. My issue is with timing. It's not with decending to the surface, damaging the ship due to going at too steep of an angle, or anything like that. It's not being incapable of landing either. It's 100% being bad at timing when to slow down and when to turn off supercruise. No amount of videos to prove how easy it is will change that, only experience. When I'm not hauling a valuable cargo I don't use Supercruise Assist in order to get said experience. But when I am hauling 40,000k or more in cargo I use Supercruise Assist because until I get that timing, it is faster for me then manual supercruise is entirely due to not over shooting and undershooting the destination. Yes, I'd seen the "six second rule". Knowing it isn't helping with my timing at all because I haven't internally groked the various componants that make up stopping on a dime yet. And trying to rely on the AI assistant telling me when to slow down and when to exit supercruise doesn't help me any, because I haven't internalized when to start slowing down yet. By the time the "slow down" warning comes up, I'm too close to slow down enough in time. Which means when the "exit supercruise" message comes up, I'm still going too fast so it wont let me drop out normally. And by the time I do an "emergency exit" (which damages your ship) I've overshot my destination by 300 ms to a lightyear. Plus now have to wait for a long FSD cooldown before I can try again.
This isn't a problem videos can help me solve, it's one only experience will help solve.
