And yes autopiloting to bookmarks has not been implemented.
Autopiloting to mission bookmarks has been implemented: open a mission, add waypoints for the target system and the agent's home station based on links in the mission dialogue, and you'll end up auto piloting back to station.
While "half arsed" may be a little severe, it is fair to say that the feature was not implemented in a manner consistent with the existing handling of bookmarks in the UI elsewhere in the game. I can see the obvious reason for not allowing autopilot waypoints to be set based on arbitrary bookmarks (i.e.: to avoid insta-bookmark spam around stargazes), no doubt the special treatment of station bookmarks is something that was merely overlooked during the sprints to bring us this new feature (which is, incidentally, awesome).

Did experiment - set to destination on old BM's gives a routing of system only (destination box is not outlined in white). However a new BM linked to a station does give a dock at destination (destination box is outlined in white - look closely). Soooo... old BM's appear to not be compatible - or the implementation was not implemented properly and QA failed (as usual).

Found this one out after waking up to my freighter sitting on the Perimeter gate, where it had been for ~6hours. Docked, figured out the workaround in ~5min, and continued sleeping my way to fortune in Eve.

I had already bug reported this on the test server.
Since there was a part of the search drop down in People and Places to search for and bookmark stations, it seemed common sense that it should work for a bookmark you create from that interface.
In other words, if you search for a particular station in people and places, right click on the correct station and select "set destination" it will dock you there.
But if you instead simply create a permanent bookmark to add to your collection and later try to have it go there and dock, it does not work.
Now this was on Sisi, so perhaps things have changed.
Anyway, as I said, I bug reported it as it seemed obvious that it "should" work with any bookmark to a station.

Customer QA found the problem, CCP once again failed to heed. SNAFU

I'm still waiting for Autopilot that warps to a POS bookmark.
Of course the best autopilot would be if it could use jump bridges. Would be great if the autopilot could use titan and blackop bridges. I don't see why this should be a problem. Just a few lines added to the code, amirite?
Later on people will be wondering why EVE can't just do everything for them. We could just sit back and watch the EVE client do everything for us and we'll watch it like a movie. |

In case the auto-pilot does not work again, should I land in the station full flaps down or should I just go in with a fast speed landing? And where is the landing gear lever on a Domi again? |
