Hey everyone,

I have read a bit about issues with docking in other posts. I've never really had any issues with docking. I built this great tanker/science base that floats around Kerbin, and I've docked a few things with it. Then I built a couple of ships that also docked with it. However, this is totally bugging me out.

I have checked the persistence file, and there was one set to the wrong thing, so I set it to Active, then backed away and tried again. I also have docked this ship with another ship that has a Docking Port on it, with great success, so I'm thinking that the thingie is pointed the right way. Even the magnets get all excited when trying to pull each other together, and it seems like they're going to make it, but alas, they never actually snap.

Any ideas? Took me two nights to get this load of data back for this science lab.

Cheers!

Your screenshot appears to be broken.

Could you upload it to an alternative image host like Imgur, and repost it here?

well, I feel like an idiot. I eventually looked at it and realized the ports on my base were backwards. I edited my persistence file and got them turned the other way and got it docked. I don't know why, but it seemed like there should be a female and male joining, not male to male. I guess that's where I went wrong.

Thanks for the quick reply, but this turned out to be a PBCAK.
