I'm having trouble designation docking points with my McQuarrie Enterprise project.

Yes, I've read the spacecraft3 manuals and tutorials.

However, when I enter the required information in the config file - I can't get it to come up on the docking MFD of another spacecraft so I can dock with the Enterprise!

Ironically, I had little problem animating the shuttlecraft bay doors! (Which I thought would be really diffucult) They work just fine!

Here is the config file I am using...

[CONFIG]
MESHNAME="Utah"
SIZE=170
EMPTY_MASS=30000
FUEL_MASS=5000
MAIN_THRUST=90.6e4
RETRO_THRUST=8e4
ATTITUDE_THRUST=4e5
HOVER_THRUST=0
ISP=2100000
PMI=(28,35,8.5)
CW_Z_POS=0.09
CW_Z_NEG=0.09
CW_X=2.
CW_Y=2
CROSS_SECTION=(223,223,30)
PITCH_MOMENT_SCALE=0.00005
BANK_MOMENT_SCALE=0.00005
ROT_DRAG=(0.5,0.5,0.5)
LAND_PT1=(5,-5,-22.7)
LAND_PT2=(-5,5,-22.7)
LAND_PT3=(5,0,-22.7)
FOCUS=0
CAMERA=(0,0,20)

[DOCK_0]
POS=(1.6942,91.874,0.325)
DIR=(0,0,-1)
ROT=(0,1,0)

[ANIM_SEQ_0]
; Cargo Bay Door
KEY=K
DURATION=20

[ANIM_COMP_0]
; cargo bay door
SEQ=0
GROUPS=29
RANGE=(0.0,1.0)
TYPE=TRANSLATE
SHIFT=(18,0,0)

[ANIM_COMP_1]
; cargo bay door
SEQ=0
GROUPS=28
RANGE=(0.0,1.0)
TYPE=TRANSLATE
SHIFT=(38,0,0)

[ANIM_COMP_2]
; cargo bay door
SEQ=0
GROUPS=27
RANGE=(0.0,1.0)
TYPE=TRANSLATE
SHIFT=(-38,0,0)

[ANIM_COMP_3]
; cargo bay door
SEQ=0
GROUPS=26
RANGE=(0.0,1.0)
TYPE=TRANSLATE
SHIFT=(-18,0,0)

Other than the size, the parameter are just wags!

And, finally, yes, I also searched the forums for someone with a similar problem - no luck there either!

I'm using the standard DG as my docking test vehicle.

It won't let me choose the docking point using vis and although I can choose a target and it shows the targets docking point, it won't let me select it!
