Ship docking is currently limited to Rescue contracts and cannot be done with arbitrary ships or other ships in the player's Fleet.

To dock with a ship, the player must be in Tactical view and must line up their docking port with the docking port of the stranded ship. A ship's docking port appears as a large rectangle connected to a small square with a line. The player's docking port will be yellow with the large rectangle where the port is, while the stranded ship's docking port will be red and flashing with the small square where the docking port is.
