Strange Mission Glitch? Help!
Now I've tried this time and again. I've read online FAQ and there's nothing I've forgotten to do. After I bring back the cargo it should let me dock and get my reward and move on to the next mission, but it won't allow me to dock. Totally stuck. What's going on? Any help would be appreciated. If you don't know about this problem but remember the mission I'm speaking of, at least try and recount what you did for me. Maybe I'm overlooking something simple, but I doubt it.
Thanks alot gentlemen!

Alright, just picked this game up and what little bit I played I loved! Really looking to play and finish this game, but I'm having a very strange issue early in the game. It's the 2nd mission for Spielman. He asks you to kill a rival in a ship called the Belrano and bring back his cargo. Well, I kill the guy and pick up the cargo. When I return to dock at Spielman's place, it won't let me dock. It says "no compatible port available".

You have to drop the pod next to the station before you can dock.. you can't dock with the pod attached to your ship.
Fly close to the station, slow down, press "U" to release the pod, and then dock to the station.. Mission complete.

BTW how would anybody know that you have to undock the cargo near the space station? That's kind of counter intuitive, isn't it? You just drop the cargo to float around in space? Anyway...
PS - I've got some invitations I can give you to a couple of private trackers if you like.

Well not really, as it's the only way you can deliver the pod to the station. Since you can't dock with the pod attached (ie: "no compatible port available" ), it makes sense that you'd have to undock from the pod in order to dock with the station.
I don't remember if the station retrieves the pod, or if it's just taken out of the game automatically.
Most delivery missions in the game are to other AI SnRV's (Searh n Recovery Vehicles).
