Hi all,
I have an annoying problem in that the modules in space station building blocks V4.0 addon wont grapple with the shuttles RMS arm even though they DO have grapple points. I am using Universal Cargo deck with the shuttle and says it is compatible with the shuttle RMS arm. I have got spacecraft3.dll module so i dont no what i'm doing wrong. This has been a major setback in my new space station construction. :beathead:
Any help would be appreciated!!!

I'm going to guess you tried this, but cant you just release it from the UCD, then grapple it?
 
Afraid so, i used the RMS "expose grapple points" option witch shows up arrows shoeing the points and their was one on it. The RMS was right over th grapple point but no, it just wouldnt grapple. :compbash2:
 
Can you post a screenshot of the alignment?
 
What's the color of the attachment point arrow? IIRC the shuttle RMS can only attach to blue ones.
 
the colour of the attchment i want is a red arrow, if i cant grapple onto the red ones, how can i grapple the red points???? :hmm:
 
I think Astrosammy's right, blue is grapple points, red is attachment points. Although it's been a while...
I've attached Kultch's URMS to my station "core" and use it to manipulate modules around.
 
I have the same problem. I like to build stations with the default Atlantis and Universal Cargo Deck but I can't grapple with the RMS. I have to settle with putting a URMS on the other side of the bay and using that, which is kinda silly.
