The mooring fixtures located on top of the docking ring are dockable, allowing large ships to dock within the planet. If you have trouble docking within stations, you can dock by pressing F3 either at the top of the station's tip or at the bottom's. If you would like screenshots to explain what I meant, please don't hesitate to PM me.

Thats perfect! Cheers.
I dont have too much docking trouble at stations (I knew the f3 trick) but sometimes getting out again I get stuck. Any options there? Sometimes re-docking and then hitting free flight seems to work, but cant find a consistent way.
Only tends to happen on those stations with inwards folding doors. Ames Research and Gas Miner Ogashawa spring to mind.
