I have noticed that in certain space stations I have absolutely no problems landing, but then in others I cant even land - it's like there is this major crosswind that I'm having to fight against. The "wind" keeps blowing me off course and I end up slamming into the walls/ceiling/floor of the space station. It's getting really frustrating making me want to just quit!

Is anyone else having these issues?

Interesting. Have not come across this. You might want to report this. One issue I am having (especially last night) is that my thrusters seem to stop working when attempting to depart from a landing pad. I have my thrusters set to my hat switch. Not sure what causes it as I have no issues at one station, then the next it fails to respond. I have to raise the landing gear and pull on my stick to take off. Not until I SC out of the area will it start working again.

Do you happen to have an alcoholic beverage with you as the night progresses? wink

There was talk about some stations not having all the technology available for things like the docking computer and perhaps even rotational assist not being available.

I'm pretty sure that it comes down to the Rotational Assist option being toggled OFF. I check this now before entering a space station and make sure it is set to ON. I have not had a problem since.
