Deploy SRV from outside!

[Louis Calvert]

As the title says.

I can't count how many times I've got out my ship (usually for bioscanning) and seen something nearby but a bit too far to walk, and thought "gee, I wish I could deploy the SRV from outside the ship" rather than getting into the ship (loading screen) and then selecting SRV (loading screen) in order to drive 500m to check something out. Also I think it's always cool to see the SRV deploy from the outside.

It could be as simple as having "Deploy SRV" on the menu when you stand in the blue circle to restock/board, etc.

I guess also having "Recover SRV" as an option if it's already deployed and in the right place to be picked up would be handy too, but less important.

Thanks o7

I can definitely get behind this.
Especially, since I know, without a doubt, someone will come back here and complain how they were killed because they got impatient and ran over to where the SRV was dropping and gets their SRV dropped on their head. That would be a glorious thread. I would definitely thumbs up any post containing a video of such a thing.
