Elite Dangerous players report frequent crashes to desktop when trying to dock at Jaques Station in open play mode. While solo mode remains stable, attempts to enter the station in open consistently fail, disrupting access to this key location. A pod of whales waiting to dock hints at a server or instance-related issue affecting multiple commanders simultaneously. This stability problem impacts gameplay and community activities, prompting calls for developer intervention to restore reliable access.

  • Crashes occur only in open play mode at Jaques Station.
  • Solo mode docking remains unaffected.
