Myth Busted: SRV Telepresence
- Thread starter IndigoWyrd
- Start date
To sustain the biomechanical automaton that occupies the chair.
Your ship is "unmanned" because your mind is elsewhere.
And because it would be rude to list your ship as "Mindless", and listing in as "Unmined" would be confusing.

then explain the lack of pilot in the ship.
Conveniently skipping over the fact that if you lose your ship you stay in your SRV. Classy.
I've yet to confirm the lack of a body in the chair while SRVing but...
Not skipping over it - if your mind is in the SRV, then what happens to your ship won't matter. Haven't skipped a thing.
...this still does not exclude the distinct possibility that the biomech seat occupant is actually moved from ship to SRV, and is still a biomechanical telepresence receiver.

Heh, I was all excited for another cancer themed post...
The posts about a bio-mechanical doppelganger are still silly, though.

The question that hasn't been answered here is: if it isn't telepresence, then how come you reappear with no ill-effects in your ship if the SRV gets blown up? Even if the SRV has an escape pod, surely you should reappear in the last visited station rather than your ship like what happens when you lose your ship? If it doesn't have any escape mechanisms, how come you don't die permanently and lose your save?
No, actually you have. Telepresence isn't telepathy, you're just controlling the vehicle via video feed, not projecting your Space-Ghost across the time continuum to possess the vehicle's controls.
Actually I think I'm just going to take the wisest course and start filtering out any post that uses the word telepresence. It's a non-topic that does nothing but promote useless spam.
I don't understand all that discussions about telepresence. Doesn't matter to me.
But to pour some oil into the fire:
Before some update the pilots chair of our ships was empty. AAAAAHHHH ghost ships! Tele-astral-neuro-presence-linke-clone-thingy-magik-fhtagn!!!

Would they not need to build a whole new animation for the SLF to open landing gear and land etc. I'd prefer an overwatch situation where my pilot can watch over my SRV in the SLF and dismiss the mothership but then we have the issue of fuel and how do you get a SLF back to the mother ship without fuel. It would be nice but you can see why they dont do it
Why would any of the SLF's have landing gear?
Have the SLF call in the mothership to refuel. It already automatically flies off into non-existence, why shouldn't it magically re-appear and allow the SLF to momentarily dock?
These are simple things. The more simple things you presume FDev are incapable of implementing, the more often they're going to skip out and leave details that make the game feel like a finished product out of the product.
Don't skimp yourself.
You're only using telepresence to control the turret, you're still sitting in the SRV.
Because you can find them landed on planet surfaces sat next to installations?
This assumes that the landing gear are part of the SLF's, and not little pegs sticking out of the pad for them to orient with and land on.
C'mon, start thinking with the same mentality that brought us telepresence!

Lol I can't say I've ever looked under one. As a side point the way FD implemented it originally you died when your srv did but a very vocal chunk of the forum painted the bed sheets brown, lit the torches and rubbed ash all over their faces. They had to make something up to fit after that lol
Believe me, I remember. It was hard enough just to get the loobies to give SRV's fuel.
Still miffed about magically disappearing ships.
