Following the latest operations update in Elite Dangerous, players have reported that the autodock feature is less reliable, particularly for larger ships like the Panther. Commanders note that the system often misses the docking trajectory, forcing ships to back up and realign more frequently. This change reduces the convenience of autodocking and may affect casual gameplay by requiring more manual intervention. The issue points to a possible alteration in the docking algorithm, which players should watch for in upcoming patches or fixes.

  • Autodock misses docking trajectory more often on large ships.
  • Players experience increased need for manual corrections during docking.
