Description

Related to: #24435 --> Solved

Undocking/uncoupling is different for same vessel interactions and seperate vessels interactions. There are two issues when using (robotic) parts to manually attach structures to docking ports:

1) The docking ports don't align properly
2) Same vessel undocking/uncoupling can't be controlled with action groups and the KAL-1000 controller where as seperate vessel docking ports can be (#24435) --> Solved

To replicate:
1) Use attached .craft file for a test setup
2) Launch and play controller sequence and wait for it to dock
3) Manually undock docked ports (since controller won't)
4) Manually set target angles of other docking attachements and dock/undock with docking port on command probe

Results:
- The undock/decouple action in the controller will undock the fuel tank as seperate vessel
- The undock/decouple action in the controller will not undock the two same vessel docking ports --> Solved

- Docked/coupled docking ports will not be properly aligned, its docked either at an offset and/or at an angle
- When you manually undock the ports the undocked ports will move into the desired position even with same vessel interaction on, be it undocked

Desired behaviour:
1) Undocking/uncoupling of same vessel docking ports can be controlled with the KAL-1000 controller and/or action groups --> Solved
2) Docking ports align properly and not at an angle or offset
