Description
Corsair Developmental Industries introduces, The Emergency Station Evacuation Pad! This Basic External Holding Cell Contains up to 3 Four-Man Escape Pods for emergency retreat from a station in imminent Danger of a Multitude of Situations.

The Pods can be created and placed Seperately to replace damaged or Dropped Pods, and require absolutely No Station side setup for the Drop and Run Process aside from the connectors holding the Pods. These Connectors Fuel the Pods Oxygen containment Unit and Hydrogen Storage Device needed for the Launch, Drop, Air Survivability, and Planet atmosphere Suicide Burn. Each Pod comes with an Occupancy Trigger inside of each pod, to allow fellow evacuees to know the pod has been taken in a glance. In the incident of improper launch without a set Course or missed planet landing, each pod is equipped with a single SOS Beacon to reach out for help.

Features:

- 1 Oxygen Generator for Oxygen and Hydrogen Production for the Pods
- 3 Connector Ports for Escape Pods
- External Catwalks
- Extra Airlock to protect the Rest of the Station from Depressurization
This Airlock is setup for Whips Auto Airlocks (Pre-set for Command and Reactor Core Modules)

-= HOW TO USE THE ESCAPE PODS =-

These Pods are fully Autonomous and only Require a Two Steps.
It has been tested in all Environments with a High Survivability Rate.

For these pods to work you will need to do two things to set them up for Full Automation.

Step 1) Make Sure you go into the -LANDING BURN PROGRAM- and Set your Worlds Inventory Multiplier. This Needs to be done to ensure the Program Runs Smoothly and Accurately! PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THIS STEP!

Step 2) Set up a GPS Location on the Nearest celestial Body with Natural Gravity.
(Everything from 0.25 -> 1.1 Has been tested)
This GPS is going to be a general Direction, so dont expect these pods to pull any crazy maneuvers and pin-point accuracy.

Once you have your GPS Down on a planet, Simply Add those Coordinates to the -AUTOPILOT DEVICE- for the corresponding Pods. When activated (Platform Launch Timer, Hotbar 3) the pod will automatically Undock, Pushoff, Drift for 200m and Set a Direct Course to the set GPS Location.

Once it Hits a Natural Gravity well it will Align itself with the Planetoid, Toggle Ion Thrusters off and Main Hydrogen Thruster on, and continue on its path Until the Landing Burn Activates above the planets Surface. When on the Surface it will be safe to Exit the Pod and Grab any Extra Gear loaded onto it and move out to a Safe Location.

-=NOTE FOR DRAG MOD USERS=-
Drag Mods are not supported by the setup and will prevent the Scripts in place from functioning properly. And As Such Worlds with Drag Mods will result in strange preformance of the pods automated drop sequence. This Vessel Will -NOT- Work with Drag mods active on worlds!

@etrun3 - To Be Honest i Never found a hanger style I'ved liked while attempting just such a feat. It is on my List of things I still need to build, However unless i can find a cleaver way of Creating one I Enjoy It'll probably be a bit.

@Golden Dragon - I'll see what i can do about that.
