Meet the 8 colossal machines that you’ll pilot. Master them with pro tips from the developers. It’s time to punch in for your shift on the docks! Docked, the new port management game from Saber Interactive, the makers of enjoyably challenging experiences like SnowRunner and RoadCraft, launches today on Xbox Series X|S! After a devastating hurricane leaves Port Wake in pieces, it’s up to you to take up the job of lead operator and help get the family business back in shape and growing again. To do so, you’ll have to learn the ins and outs of eight massive steel beasts and master how they work. So come along for the ride, rookie, and get to know the colossal machines and vehicles of Docked! Reach Stacker Say hello to the most versatile machine on the docks: the Reach Stacker! This bad boy can handle trucks and trains, operate in container yards, and transport containers over long distances, no problem. How do you pick up a container with a Reach Stacker on the first attempt? Line it up like a pro. Approach the container dead center and keep your aim steady. Even a small misalignment can put the spreader just out of reach, so take your time and nail the approach. Once you’re moving, remember: low and stable wins every time — don’t raise the boom too high if you’ve got heavy cargo unless you want to go tipping over. Need to transport a 40-foot container through a tight space? Lower the boom with the container as close to the ground as possible. Extend the boom and rotate the spreader 90 degrees. Now you can maneuver through tight spaces like a seasoned operator! Straddle Carrier The Straddle Carrier drives directly over rows of containers and doesn’t require substantial foundations or rails. But how does it do it without hitting any containers? To start with, you’ve got a heads-up display (HUD) as well as an altimeter in the operator’s cab that shows how high the spreader is raised. Between 4.45 and 5.2 meters means it’s safe to drive over the truck chassis, even with a container in the spreader. Tier height 1 means the spreader can safely pass over one container on the ground. Tier height 2 means the spreader can safely pass over two containers above the ground, and so on. Pretty straightforward, right? There’s still more to finesse when you’re driving through the port versus driving through the yard, however. When moving through the port, you want to turn your seat forward for better orientation. But once you enter the yard, rotate the cab perpendicularly to get a better view of the entire spreader and the container — that’ll help you avoid the guesswork. You can also use the arrow in front of the cab as a guide when entering the yard to help you avoid getting your wheels caught on containers. STS, RTG & RMG Cranes Here we go. Cranes are usually the largest machines in a port, towering over everything around them. Economically, the crane acts as a magnet for shipping lines, increasing container flow to the terminal. In Docked, you’ll get to master the STS (Ship-to-Shore), RTG (Rubber-Tired Gantry), and RMG (Rail-Mounted Gantry) cranes. With vehicles this big, how do you effectively dampen spreader swing, especially in hard mode? Here’s a tip: as your cabin approaches a container, stop in front of it early and allow the spreader to swing forward to where you want it. Then quickly move the cabin forward to meet the spreader and stop. This way, you can dampen the swing like a professional operator. But how do you effectively insert twistlocks into a container when the spreader is swinging? The spreader has flippers on its corners that help compensate for small mistakes. Lower the spreader to the height of the flippers above the container, and wait until the projections are roughly aligned with the container. Then begin lowering the spreader. The flippers act like a funnel, narrowing to direct the spreader perfectly onto the container! Terminal Tractor A typical highway tractor isn’t designed for hundreds of couplings and uncouplings per shift, as all that action causes it to wear out faster. That’s where the Terminal Tractor becomes indispensable. So what’s the secret to moving quickly after coupling a tractor with a trailer? For starters, don’t floor it right away or you’ll feel the impact instantly. After coupling, the trailer’s landing legs are still down, which means you can’t drive without scraping the ground. Just lift the fifth wheel and you’re good to go. But remember to lower the trailer back onto the ground before handling another container. The MHC Look alive, because the MHC (Mobile Harbor Crane) can change specializations on the fly, without downtime, simply by changing its attachment: containers, bulk cargo, or general cargo. For small-to-medium ports, MHCs often provide a more cost-effective ROI than building standard STS infrastructure, especially with fluctuating cargo volumes. But an expert hand behind the controls is still a must with the MHC. Stopping a grab over a hopper bin can be a challenge, so try to stop the boom rotation a few meters beforehand and allow the grab to continue moving with its own momentum to dampen the sway. Once it’s over the bin, continue the rotation to help you complete the operation quickly. The MHC’s massive crane doesn’t always play nice in tight spaces, so use different travel modes and precise rotation for more accurate maneuvering. Mobile Hopper This (not so) li’l fella’s main advantage is how quickly it can be deployed, allowing operations even in locations without permanent infrastructure. When handling the Mobile Hopper, don’t lower the nozzle arm too far into the truck bed, as it may become stuck in the bulk material. When moving the hopper over a truck or other obstacles, monitor the height of the arm — it’s best to raise it beforehand to avoid damage. Your shift begins now!
