Docking once was something only mods could do.... And then, when it got added as an official feature of the game, it was hard, really hard I mean, hardcore, really close to impossible (lol just exaggerating) Later, Squad added the stuff that really helped, and then docking became easy ( for people who have been playing the game for some time) And now I can easily dock like you, it's really easy with all these things helping, and some mods (Docking Alignment Indicator, I'm looking at you) really makes it even easier (and immersive).
