Docking Game
Here's a fun idea: enter free flight mode with your aircraft of choice, spawn in this docking plane, and, as the name would imply, attempt to dock with this aircraft. keep in mind the AI will try to evade you, but the reduced speed and auto orienting gyro will make it harder for the plane to avoid being docked with. still, it will be very challenging, and i wish all the foolhardy of you the best of luck.
Controls:
if you want to actually pilot this thing, keep in mind the engine speed has been reduced, and the auto orienting gyro is on by default. you'll have to either edit that back to normal yourself or bug me to make a proper flying version.
Gear 8: gyro and magnet.
Trim: raise/ lower docking mechanism
VTOL: extend/ retract docking mechanism
