It would be totally awesome if you could make it happen, prefferably with the way NPC's do it, just today i catched 6 smugglers, guess how many actually paid their fines... Could be made by command that work only if you have proper ID/IFF (Guard rep preferably), from what I understand, it causes temporary hostility to police, which causes hostility of every lawful ship in chain-reaction way, similar to how liberty rogues turn hostile if you're hostile only to outcasts, and outcast ship flies by.

This would allow local forces to have better control of docking, and resolve a couple of other issues. (Eg. Passenger transports speed-docking on Crete etc).

The answer is no, inRP and ooRP. Game mechanics probably won't permit it, and shooting shooting a Trade Lane to deactivate it is usually a last resort for a lawful. Those things are expensive to repair, and Docking Rings are often the only way on and off a planet for most ships. Inability to use them would cause logistical and economic calamaties, particularly in house space.
I haven't seen this thread before, so I'm just gonna state what I think.
It would be good if only members of official factions with faction tag can block docking ring via some command. Then, It won't be abused.
