pick one way - request landing and request jump gate access.

[sedman]

To use a jump gate, you press 'H' to unlock the pointer, select the jump gate and request jump - free pointer is automatically disengaged.

To land at a station, you press 'H' to unlock the pointer, select the station and request landing - the free pointer is not disengaged, you have to press 'H' again to control your ship.

Could one method or the other please be applied for consistency.

I just which there was a quick key for comms instead, so you did not need to go to 'free pointer' mode.

As for stations, just put landing gear down and land, never had to ask for landing permission.

Some stations wont let you land, I couldn't work out how to identify those through the map so rather than being surprised, I got in the habit of requesting landing permissions, and this difference in actions required to land and jump became more apparent and cumbersome.

I think CRTL + H works on both, or at least on most stations.

That came a few updates after I posted that, but its definitely an improvement

Ah, I see. I only started playing in the last 2 weeks. Think I heard about the short cut in a YouTube video.

Ctrl-H only works most of the time. Doesn't work on Mining guild for instance. But if you press H and request docking you always get it. I think it's just a bug.
