To dock with a station, pilots must first request docking permissions by accessing the navigational terminal's "Contacts" tab. Pilots farther than 7,500m from a small outpost will be automatically denied access. In heavily populated or lagging instances, all ports may be occupied and a permit will be denied. Once granted, the pilot will be assigned a landing pad number he or she should approach and land on. If the pilot does not land within the allotted time slot [usually 10 minutes], the pilot will have to exit the station and request additional permissions. Attempting to dock without permissions will trigger a lethal response within 59 seconds. This includes docking with the incorrect landing platform. | To dock with a station, pilots must first request docking permissions by accessing the navigational terminal's "Contacts" tab.
