A commander reported being killed by their own fleet carrier after receiving a 'Docking offences' violation while defending against an enemy powerplay NPC. The incident occurred as the commander attempted to dock, but the carrier fired on them despite the player’s claim of innocence. This episode has sparked renewed criticism of Elite Dangerous’ law and docking enforcement systems, which some players consider unfair or prone to bugs. The community is calling on Frontier Developments to review and improve these mechanics to prevent similar unjust outcomes. This issue remains a significant concern for commanders navigating contested space.
