Can't leave train when remote viewing

Post by mrvn »

TL;DR
When remote viewing a train there is no way to leave the train and remain at the current location.

What ?
The remote view when viewing a train should have a close (X) button to leave the train and remain at the current location. Leaving the train with <return> should also work just like when the player wants to exit a train.

Note: In normal remote viewing mode pressing <return> with the mouse over a train should enter the train too.
Why ?
When looking at bottlenecks or breakage in a train based factory a frequent issue is that A requires B requires C requires D so one follows the chain back to D. Then when a train arrives at D to load the items I want to follow the train to C. When the train arrives at C now I want to watch that part of the factory work. Then follow the next train to B and watch that part and finally get back to A.

But once I follow the train to C I can't leave it without leaving the remove view, which puts my straight back to A. Then I have to scroll on the map back to C. Same deal with B.
