Pickup Points are special rail blocks that allow for automatic docking if a ship's Rail Docker is within 3 meters (3 block lengths) of it.

Item Description

The Pickup Point block will project a 3x3 detection sphere. When a ship's docking module enters that detection area, the entity will be guided to a Pickup Rail if applicable. Ships will remember the last used Pickup Area modules they dock to and if they're part of a fleet, they'll return to them when the "Carrier Recall" order is issued. The flagship is where they'll try to return, multiple carriers per fleet is not allowed yet.

Pickup Points can be deactivated via logic. But unlike most other rail block types, they can't be transformed into another rail type or get their orientation changed.
