Mech Deployer for Portable Tech and Teleporter Console

Description
A tweak for the Portable Tech + Teleporter Console addon that should allow you to deploy a mech pretty much anywhere. (Mech on your ship? YES! Mech on missions? Definitely!

When on a ship, there's two options for it: deploy mech onboard ship, or on the current orbited world. That's thanks to the way Darkblader24 made the console work.

When deploying, it will spawn you at the world's spawn location (for missions, read "start point"), and no, I can't make it deploy where you are. I'm still getting the hang of modding. That said, using the /reload command may work to place it where you are. Testing required.

Also, thank you SO SO MUCH to Darkblader24 for working out the .patch files instead of dirty edits!

If you use the Handheld Teleporter addon, the appropriate addon can be found here: http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=963557739

@Not-Joe it should do. From what I can tell, nothing's broken it.

From what I could tell, his one essentially resets the planet's spawnpoint to your location, then beams you in with the mech there. I'm not a fan of resetting spawnpoints. But I'll have another look, and see if there's anything I can do. No guarantees...

Favorited for when it deploys next to you. Idea is amazing, though <3
Look at Mech Deployment Beacon's code or talk to its author to see if that gives you some insight or inspiration on how to do that

this sounds amazing, but it needs to deploy right next to you if your on a planet. if that problem gets fixed, i will download this Mod for sure.

It's the Avali tier 9/10 alternate one. So it uses the alternate shape, but with tiers 9 + 10. Link here: http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=746532608&searchtext=

A titanfall like marker might be possible through a repurposing of the craftabe checkpoint mod? i'm not 100% sure but it'll take a smarter guy than me to implement that. tbh I wan't mechs to fight. i find it rediculous that we search for mech bps on hostile ships yet they have no mechs themselves. the game needs hostile modular mechs in play. lol sorry rant over
