Ever felt like the stock ports weren't good enough?
This is the craft for you! Its a direct upgrade from my previous version, but it comes at the cost of 30+ parts. I dont have much to talk about it except showing pretty pictures, so heres a list of every thing i changed from the first design:
- Reworked the entire hatch section.
- Reworked actuators.
- Improved the gap after docking.
- Power-Data outlet is not the same as the plug anymore.
- Alignment petals have collision, which assists in docking at the right angle.
- Docking Pins are slightly more pointy at the end.
- Alignment petals have an improved metallic look.
- Added another rubber ring seal (Red ring), to be more true to the actual thing.
- Improved weight a little bit.
- No more sticky-outy bits on the bottom.
- Removed soft capture extension.
You might not see the last one as an improvement, but to implement the extension with my current actuator design would mean breaking a ton of connections, which i really dont want to do right now.
I may or may not try to make an extending soft capture ring that includes translation and rotation, like the real thing.

It is suggested that you can make a docking port that can open and close the door.👌

Please don't send "666" because it symbolizes the devil in western countries._@shendingcheng2876

@Taokyle Grab the whole thing by the part named MAIN, then drag it to the left upper corner which should have an icon for subassemblies. Then open your rocket, open sub assemblies and put it where you want.

@notsorry Its an androgynous port, I know the real thing has an active and passive side, but for SR2 purposes androgynous is easier

@malumuteanaerospace The docking port is less, thats because the craft file has 2 capsules and 2 of the docking port (Shroud and no shroud var.)

@Cloud9andahalf All of my custom ports are based around one central transparent docking port, and i test them to make sure they can dock

My real hope for all these custom made docking ports is for them to have an actual hatch or door that allow the droonauts to pass through. Nice build BTW
