Space Station Question

[fifahornseahd]

Hey guys,

I'm really stuck with this and I can't find any help.

How do I build the core of a space station so that, in the tracking station, it will recognise it as a station and not a ship.

I tried doing Hitchhiker Storage + 1 dock port but it came up as a ship and not a station

PLEASE HELP ME

Cheers

Moved to Gameplay Questions.

If I understand your question correctly... no part is recognised by the game as a space station part specifically. If you right-click on an attached command module (be it probe or manned), you can edit the ship's name and which icon or craft class the game assigns to it.

That is correct. There's no way to auto-label something as a station, at least not with stock parts -- they all default to "Ship", "Lander", "Probe", or "Rover".

Even the cupola defaults to "Lander"... what's up with that???

I've had mod parts default as debris. Really annoying because it doesn't show the ship on the trajectory.
