Well I have seen pictures and there is a video out there of a Coriolis with an Outpost station in the middle of the docking bay, apparently you can land on both.

Hi 
How weird! ...
...The Earth part of Quake obviously shouldn't apply here in theory?..
Something like Solar Storm Activity or Structural Fatigue leading to....would have been a more rational explanation, even something like a chip pan in the stations kitchen caused an extensive fire and areas have been cordoned off.

Perhaps that is what the "Section 7" problem is that station chit-chat talks about from time to time.
Rampaging tectonicae?
Have you been having dreams abut being chased by concha labiata - 'cos if so the I think you might have been traumatised by the Janelle Monáe song PYNK ...
(no I am not going to link the video as I don't want to get banned LOL )

This is nothing you can't learn if you want to...So...
I know that there is a lot one can do wrong, but if I get it right, I need about as much time to land on a surface station as I need for the approach and landing on an orbital station. I still consider myself slow in that regard, campared to more seasoned commanders who have developed methods that allow them to dock and return at least twice in the time I dock once. Flying with them has helped me improve vastly in that regard. Most of my ships have neither ADC/DC nor SCA modules installed.
That definitely would be way slower than what even I can achieve...
I seem to be lucky with my trusty old Xbox 360 gamepad. It has seen extensive use in racing games and still is my controller of choice for Elite.
I would love to get a new one that has a few more buttons, but I somewhat dread the apparent high wear on those newer, way more expensive controllers. I tried a cheaper one, but besides its extra buttons just replacing other buttons (which means you get two buttons that do the same) - it is already dead. Lasted about a week.
I guess it is the way I use my old controller that makes the difference. I tend to smaller movements and don't yank the stick from one side to the other, smashing it into the hull of the controller. That also keeps the strain on my tendons at bay.*
I'm not sure that is even possible. People always find ways to perform repetetive movements.
*: I suffer from the aftermath of a neglected tendosynovitis in both arms. A job which combined long hours at the wheel of a 7.5 ton box truck with strenuous manual labor with minimal tools was the main reason for that. Being stressed out because of fearing to lose the job combined with a lack of experience did the other half.

So what haaped to me?
I am running along on a dark planet when suddenly I am frozen and all I see is the night time sky above me.
No key press seems to get me free of such predicament, all I can do is exit and re log!
After re logging I find pirates had destroyed my ship!
I had to pay 7.5 K for Apex to go to a system with a shipyard and then 3.5 Million for a rebuy of my mandalay all because my screen was stuck!
(the game should re-imburse me!)

Don't mind my moan - I was just annoyed.
Apologies everone!

Interesting. How does that work in terms of their placement in the bubble? Is it random?
Planet landing can induce a little eyeroll when I just need a quick in and out port, but one thing that irritates me is my 12 RAM Nvidia 3060 sounding like it's about to implode.
Nice.
Expect a CG to fix it.
How dare you complain in the What Are You Upto thread. Only happiness and rainbows will do.
It's relateable, though. Sometimes, we ne some place to vent. Done that myself more than once in the past.
Interesting. My computer often sounds like someone shifted down at high speeds, just below the point where the gearbox would disintegrate...
Generally I don’t hear anything from mine when playing the game, mind you I do play with headphones or earphones.
When I don’t wear them it sounds a bit like a raging flood in the street outside.
Which is one reason I don’t use speakers,
To be honest I have no idea, I do know we failed to get the CG completed so there are a couple of Megaships missing it ought to be 3 missing but they seem to have slipped us an extra one.
One of them did turn up only about 4 jumps from my FC which is handy given that the system the Megaship is in is now pretty much solid with FCs.
Sounds like a problem at their end then.
I rarely play with headphones because I'm usually listening to something else, but you realise you've been missing some quality audio immersion when you put them back on.
Headphones have proven to be quite inconvenient if you have to cope with recurring real life interventions.
Aside from the fact that my headset died after almost two decades of service.

I put my headphones on to avoid coping with real life. In space I can not hear my neighbour knock on my door.
If you can hear them when playing ED plus some background music over speakers, you got the wrong speakers
.
I usually wear my airpods and the wife doesn't like it, the cat likes to climb the curtains, knock nick-knacks of the shelves and cause general mayhem during the early hours of the morning and I can't hear a thing while playing. I guess I'm too aloof.
