Warp to Planet vs. Warp to Customs Office

Is there a reason warping to a planet drops you on a customs office now?

I don't recall this being an issue in the past (could be crazy) but it's getting to be a bit annoying that whenever I warp to a planet, I land right on top of a customs office.

Maybe whoever anchored the customs office just warped to planet and dropped it. I'm not sure exactly how anchoring customs offices work, as I've never bothered with it, so I could be wrong.

Working as intended.

Depends on the distance they anchored the customs office away from the planet.

POCOs will anchor where you launch them (unlike a POS, which anchors at distance from where you launch it), so if someone warps to the planet and launches the POCO gantry, that's where it will anchor.

Ahhh, gotcha, must just be a string of bad luck then on warp ins, thanks for the information!

If the issue is the POCO de-cloaking your covops or BR just warp to 100km on the planet instead.

Better to warp at range to the POCO than the planet. Then you'll never have a problem.

What's more annoying is that if you bookmark a POCO and then warp to it, you end up INSIDE the POCO model. Subsequently you get stuck and can't warp away.
