New page

In this lesson:

* Left/right trusters
* Selecting ships in the wind shield.

Take off. Retract your landing gear. Make a lateral roll to face Lave station and assume relative position. Make a longitudinal roll so that the bulk ship and Lave Station appear on a horizontal line, with the bulk ship left of the station. Ask for landing permission.

Fire your right side thrusters (J) to accellerate to the left, without yawing. Keep it slow, about 150 m/s. Keep going until you're directly behind the bulk ship. To stop, fire the left side thrusters to assume relative position to the bulk ship and Lave station again.

Select the ship (using mouse). You see a red crosshair marking the ship with numbers indicating your distance (should be constant) and speed (should be approx. 0). The crosshair is red because you selected it as a firing target. Other ships can only be selected as firing targets. Don't fire at it.

Select the station again. You'll notice that the ships selection persists. The square green marker indicates a navigation target. It only has a distance indicator, because you directional target is a green crosshair, which has only a speed indicator.

Accelerate toward the ship, to about 150 m/s. When you're about 1.5 km from the ship, fire your left trusters to avoid collision.

Extend your landing gear. Decellerate so that you can dock at Lave station.
