I'm not entirely sure of the bug/"feature"

Sometimes it can, sometimes it can't.

People just take stuff too seriously I think. Except IB, of course.

No ship can "Dock" at a carrier, you can only dock at a Garrison, Techbase, Palliside, Research, Shipyard, and any outpost...

If your asking about if a ship can use a carrier, anything that fits through that hole can use it (not necessarily teleport there)...

Umm carriers don't have shields...and if your talking about ship shield, it can use the carrier...

There is something funny about it. Like, if you launch the attack carrier with a shield mounted people can dock fine, but if you unmount and put it back on then people can't dock at you anymore.

Something along those lines, at least.

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.

If you can dock while your shields are up it's a bug.

You're meant to have them down. (it's in the description of the craft before you buy/launch in one!!!)

You join a game, select ship and click launch?

I docked twice with an Enh fig with shields into an attack carrier today. Second time I did have some trouble but I managed to get in.
