Docking ports not connecting

[StygianBlack]

They are both facing the correct direction. There are no obstructions. No logical reason for it to not work. Can anyone please help?

Were they docked before?

Yes and no. The issue appeared both on docking ports that I brought to location and attached via rockets and ones that I brought to location via KIS/KAS and attached (I increased the grabbing weight in the .cfg).

This makes the mod so much better btw.

I assume you're trying to connect the same type of port (eg. 2 junior ports). Are you using the covered ones? Make sure they're open if so. Are the ports set back into the part they are attached to (if you used the move part tool in VAB). Are they put on backwards? (It happens). Make sure there are no hidden/hard to see struts etc. in the way. Make sure to set the correct port as your target and turn off SAS when close to docking.

Posting pictures will greatly Increase the odds of us helping you solve this.

Figured it out. It seems that the mod TweakableEverythingContinued glitched the docking ports out. Removed it and everything is back to normal.

Also, are the magnets engaging?

As I said I figured it out, but no they weren't engaging. The DP's would just bump into each other and bounce off.

I can confirm that removing Tweakable EverythingContinued resolved the docking port issue in my save too. 

 

Seems through CKAN it was listed as compatible with 1.2.1 but then suddenly became incompatible shortly after. perhaps the bug was spotted. 

 

Not tested with 1.2.2 but perhaps removing the "tweakable docking port" module for TEC might fix it.

Meh. I don't really use it anyway. Seemed like one of those must have things that just gathered dust in the end.

Fixed it for me to by removing Tweakable EverythingContinued on 1.3.1!
