The SCP people at HLP are just now discussing this delima, but implamenting a few shouldn`t be a real problem...

As I understand the EA Freighter has 8 pods, now implamenting 8 docking points would be highly unlikely, but like I stated, its being looked into, we`ll see

Then I must have remembered wrong.

I thought that in one misison an Mephisto docked with cargopods jumped in to get another one and then jumped out again (maybe it was even in FS1).

But its been a long time since I played the original FS2 Campaign so I'm sure that this wasn't that way.

But I hope the HPL people get the multiple docking points to work.
Would be cool if the EA freighter could dock/undock all of it's containers

As much as I would like it to have 2 docking points, the Mephisto only has dock01, but that should soon change when FS2open 3.5 is released

(edit) Once the docking points are implemented into the sorce code then the POF`s would have to be edited to add dockpoints, not to mention paths for the additional dock point.. Will probably take some time to edit capital ships and such, excluding fighters and bombers, as they would only have 1 dockpoint.
