    Air drop SRVs

    Right? Seems easy enough to implement. Beats waiting for your ship to land. Also, I would love a hover bike that goes much faster over terrain than the scarab and can be quickly mounted and dismounted at the cost of being much weaker/not charging and resupplying the player. But I also want a...

    If I have two vehicle hangers with scarabs, is it possible to have a different livery on each?

    I feel like the answer is probably no, given that in liveries there is only one option for Scarab livery, and I also suspect if I had a Scarab and a Scorpion then that wouldn't be an issue... ED does occasionally make things not that obvious though so I'm curious is there a way? And if not is it...

    SRV fuel conservation strategies?

    To conserve SRV fuel while on 2000+ Lyr expeditions, what strategies are effective? One that comes to mind is land, disembark deploy, scan in a circle for signals, board, fly, repeat to bracket the signal source.

    SRV trapped by Role Panel UI while crawling up an incline

    When crawling up an incline, the UI focus resides on the Role Panel. Neither the "UI Back" control nor the "Role Panel" mode switch unlocks the UI focus.

    SRVs: Rework the Scorpion and create a new one for ExoBio

    I'm not going to really say much about the Scarab, because it really is a good general purpose vehicle. Unfortunately, the Scorpion was given to the players for combat, and to put it plainly, it's not good at it. I will give it some credit though. It does handle better than the Scarab, the...

    Ship SRV hangar boarding zone should have visible indicator on the ground

    With ships more commonly 'docking' by hovering in the air when it can't find a landing spot, lining up your SRV with the hangar boarding zone can be a bit of a nightmare [esp. while under fire]. Like with on foot boarding at the blue circle, I suggest adding an orange glowing rectangle on the...

    SRV Deployment Direction

    The SRV deployment direction is currently facing the rear of the ship. It would be nice to see the direction of the SRV when deployed be facing the front of the ship.

    Some gameplay ideas for the floor...

    Hello, I recently had three ideas for ground gameplay that I think would be interesting to implement in the game in future years : 1) A horn for srv : It is very annoying when you are rolling with your scarab on the roads of a ground base (Odyssey), you pass over a very narrow bridge and in...

    [Doppel's Diatribes #3] That second SRV was great (...mostly), but we still need a few more

    Preface: if you don't know what a Doppel Diatribe is, read here. Today we'll talk about the SRV niches left uncovered, and even some that Odyssey's new careers actually created new demands for. So. Our dear Scarab was essentially a futuristic, upgraded moon rover, and while sometimes a bit...

    Resources Disappearing

    (As a new player, I am experiencing a few annoyances) THIS is one of them out of a hand full..... When I am on a SRV on a planet and find resources like Iron, Carbon etc etc etc.It tends to disappear after I first shoot the big rock and all the resources come flying out. I look at the Contacts...

    Newcomer / Intro SRV key mapping question

    I was playing around with an SRV for the first time and everything was great until I returned to the ship and tried to get back aboard. The "Board Ship" light is blue but my usual 'do it' key has no effect. I pressed every key on the keyboard and the X52 stick and throttle and even that didn''t...

    More realist data storage for biological sample and data

    The whole "if your srv is destroyed you lose ALL biological data and sample" thing is absolutely stupid. Why would they store everything in the SRV rather than store only things that you've picked up since you left your ship. Once you get back to your ship the data and sample should be...

    srv bug (an observation)

    So I've been frustrated with the bug involving the scooping of items with the SRV, but noticed something interesting. This morning I needed to gather some specific mats, wanted to do it quick so I went to bug killer crash site. used to be quick and easy for what I needed. Kind of a go to...

    Meta Discussion Scorpion

    Sorry, maybe this is the wrong section, but I do not understand where to write about it. What is the purpose of Scorpion ? I tried it to clean up the settlement of 22 marauders - very difficult. On the scarabey it's easy. Maybe he only need it to kill Goliath and all?

    New SRV

    I have been messing about with the srvs to compare them with each other i noticed that the New SRV accuracy sucks compare to the old one i was wounder if this could be changed cause the old srv can hit targets better. Atleast increase the accuracy by 30% cause it feels like it has the burst...

    Better SRV Keyboard Control

    A simple change would make using the SRV with a keyboard much more controllable. Add forward and reverse controls that work like thrusters do on the ships when you use your keyboard. That way we can either go full out, or just tap for different lengths to get the speed we want. The current...

    Ship Detection of Surface Minerals

    I can live with the new way that the surface scanner works and doesn't provide specific locations for surface mineral mining. However, I think to offset this our ships should come with the ability to detect mining objects on the ground so we can cover area more quickly, landing only to hop into...

    About the new SRV...

    I'm very confused as to what purpose exactly this new SRV will be filling. That's because the current SRV is a multi-purpose vehicle allowing you to do any and all vehicle related content in the game. So if we already have a vehicle that does everything, it means that the new one will have a...

    SRV lights "alpha" vs now changed?

    I just remembered how the SRVs headlights during the alpha started Off, whereas after Odyssey release and in Horizons, they always start on Low Beams. I'm just curious if I'm not the only one remembering this, and if it was intentional. It's a tiny change, but you can't feel like you're sneaking...

    Thoughts on an Exploration based SRV

    So we got the official word to expect a twin-seat SRV from FDev recently. Sounds like the rumors about the Scorpion may be finally coming true. I'll definitely be interested to see how this pans out. That said, it got me thinking that we'll now have a general purpose SRV and a combat SRV...

    SRV Wave Scanner for Biologicals

    Unless I'm somehow completely missing this, it'd be really handy to use the "switch mode" button (no,, we don't need more binds!) so switch the wave scanner to pick up biological signs, allowing you to find those harder to find biologicals. Some planets have very small biological points on the...

    Suggested feature: NPC using SRVs for combat, defense or running away

    I just wanted to add my two cents for... well, gameplay fun. I know there are already many, but I haven't heard much about this type: NPCs SRV combat. After lots of combat missions, being anihilate missions or murdering missions for example, I'm missing something obvious: that NPCs can drive...

    Can't transfer cargo between SRV and ship anymore?

    Have SRV. Pick up cargo. Drive under the orange square hologram beneath my ship's vehicle hangar. Look down at between-my-legs panel. I can't find any options for transferring cargo to and from the ship. Please tell me there's still a way to do this. Help!

    Why does srv radar poi signal die out?

    SRV Should be remotely deployable whilst on-foot.

    It could be much better than getting in ship and deploying with the srv afterwards. We can dismiss the ship remotely to orbit so ships are capable of doing some things remotely. I think we should be able to deploy the srv whilst on-foot and nearby the ship. While the ship is on the ground of...

    Allow the dropship harness to be a module

    Giving the player the ability to also drop multi-crew members onto a base would be great. Being able to quickly fly in and drop a squad to start a heist would be a lot of fun. The ability to hot drop an SRV would also bring in a lot. Being able to coordinate an extraction as well would be sweet...

    My ship disappeared

    I’m out at Farseer inc in my SRV. My ship just disappears, out of sight and radar. Lookup and found out I can dock at the station. Probably is, station keeps denying me access. I’m not wanted, just joined Federation for some extra credits for awhile. Some help is needed.

    Can't recall ship from SRV

    I'm a bit upset. I've got two months of exploration data, now possibly lost due to the fact that I can't get my ship to land on the surface. Because my Planetary Vehicle Hangar is active, the power limit is exeeded, so it just crashes to the ground whenever i recall the ship. I don't know what...

    Idea for the game

    I think the game should have an hauling type srv like a truck version that can carry more cargo with a capacity of 50 and still have a mounted turret same as the srv let me know if you think its a good idea
