In real life sometimes they use automated docking systems to make it easier to dock so maybe could you add automated docking procedures.

It's easy enough already. It must remain a challenge to make it worth having it in the game.

This is how it really works: The Capsule is programmed to go to the ISS and keep up with it, Then it is put into free roam and then grabbed by the robotic arm on the ISS and Docked, Mission Control only makes sure the capsule is doing what it was programmed and made to do and no mistakes are made

If you want automatic docking you can watch videos, a game too much easy can be boring.

Stef would defenently not add that to the game, he wants players to be challenged, you ight aswell make everything automated and be done with it, but ofcurse it wouldnt be a fun game to play

Well I don't know... some automation could come in handy, like restocking the 50 or so spare boosters on my station for refueling, which I can only launch 2 at a time for... Or large ships built in 10 stages.

How to implement it and what limitations it would have is what would determine if it makes EVERYTHING easy or not. Say you had to build the first one manually, save the finished product, and have automatic re-assembly available for future copies.

I'm not saying I'd personally want that (yet.......) but I sure would consider the possibility.
