one (two) bugs with current svn. No planet docking, low fps.

Hi,
I installed the svn version on 03 sep. and updated it today. With both versions I have the following problems:

- I can't dock to planets anymore.

I get close and closer, I hit 'd' like mad but nothing happens. No green rectangle (no rectangle at all) and I get a nice 'keep comms open' message back. In the konsole this appears:

Asking to undock

and nothing else. Docking to space stations still works like it should. This started shortly after I left some space station in Cephid (I don't know which one).

The second one is more a nuisance:
FPS when getting close to Fighter Barracks or Relay are very low.

I have a pretty powerfull system (Amd X2 6000+, Ati 3870). In normal flight I have 75-100fps if the counter is to believed.
But when closing in to a Fighter Barracks station FPS get as low as 7(!). Mostly around 11-18. Unplayable jerkyness occurs.

0.50 is fine in both regards.

vegastrike was built with the following configure line:

./configure --prefix=/home/energyman/vegastrike_cvs --exec-prefix=/home/energyman/vegastrike_cvs --with-data-dir=/home/energyman/vegastrike_cvs/data --enable-release=2 --enable-flags="-O2 -msse3 -march=k8" --disable-debug

at 25km distance to fighter barracks FPS are at ~30.
At 15km distance they are down to 11

If only a part of the station is visible (because you are very close) FPS are normal again.

[energyman76b]

a) planets are ok now. Don't know what happened
b) with amd's latest drivers (8.9) performance around stations got a lot better (like 25FPS instead of 11) but performance at the asteroid fields still sucks (7FPS)
