Hello!
In my latest play I had the idea of organizing my base in such a way so I could use trains for in-base transportation (like a tram).
The idea was to have a series of trains constantly running around the base, and I would hop on and off the trains in motion to get transported (placing stations makes it impractical unless the base is built REALLY far apart).
The thing is, the hopping-on works fine (its a bit dangerous), but the hop-off wont work because the character lands a couple pixels "inside" the train, and is instantly killed.
Maybe it was done this way for a reason, but if not, could the character hop-off spot be moved a couple pixels so you dont get instakilled if jumping off a moving train?
Thank you!
(Sorry for any grammar/spelling mistakes, im from Argentina and english is not my main language)
Move the "getting off" position for the trains a few pixels?

The better question is: Do we WANT to be able to hop off a 200 km/h fast train?

It would make trams possible
Plus, the same could be said about stackable-bonus robotic legs, which are far more powerful as they make you faster in every direction with no world infrastructure.

This is covered in the wiki. Next you will be wanting to spit out of moving trains I bet!
(Just kidding by the way - trams would be fun!)
