Overview
By the time most Jamesons will have aquired enough to afford this piece of equipment, they have learnt to dock manually with their optical recievers obscured (or were scraped from a dockingbay by auto-shovels). Nevertheless a usefull piece of AI to install in your vessel if you do not have a copilot, who can take over the helm should you feel an urgent need to visit the captains recreational cubicle. (Be advised that voiding the ships sanitationtanks while in dock or in the process of docking is prohibited and will be fined according to GalCop Art.2, sec.4a "unsanitary behaviour" and Art.1,sec.5 "vandalism of GalCop property")

Advanced Options
A soothing ancient melody will be replayed while activated as most space veterans get agitated at the slow and deliberate method of docking the AI uses, this can be switched on and off by pressing S.
Holding shift and pressing D activates a hypnotic sleep inducer (MemmSomn Pilot Interaction) at the same time as the docking computers - this allows the pilot to sleep while the ship docks and awake refreshed when docking procedures are complete.
Holding shift and pressing C contacts the targeted ship or station rather than the main station, permitting auto-docking with large vessels and non-standard space-stations.
