Cargo dock upgrading

[ATM_Reaper]

Why can I upgrade the cargo dock from 2 module to 4 but then not to 6? Is it something I am doing wrong or is this an oversight? In order to build the 6 module I need to demolish then rebuild.

You did nothing wrong. 2 module docks can be upgraded to 4 and 6 to 8, but not 4 to 6.

Can't read what it says here ^ seems to be stuck in content check.

My assumption is that bc 2/4 docks take up a bit less space in the water than 6/8 docks do, upgrading from 4 to 6 would simply break them and they'd become inaccessible. So they had two choices: #1 make 2/4 docks take up more space in the water or #2 make it so you can't upgrade from 4 to 6.

I know it's inconvenient this way bc you can't really plan for it. But if you remember to keep 6 of the larger blocks (thick black line) as a distance between the right border of each dock, you can easily plan ahead. This is the same outside border of a dock, not the space in between.

Thanks folks, a tad surprised but Im sure the devs are working on a fix as it would seem to be a bit of a glaring error given how polished the rest of the game feels.

generaly its not worth to build smaller ones as it has lower fuel efficiency and ships dont got size so they take size of the dock

before i got 6 slot dock i just my main ship to transport stuff once "production is full"
