This is a collection of mods which move the fast travel machine in Atlas HQ to one of a few different locations, to avoid having to take a jog through otherwise completely-empty areas of the level on your way to take on Power Troopers or Katagawa Jr. In all cases, it swaps out another New-U station in place of the fast travel machine ordinarily in the bank, so your map state will be remembered properly at the beginning of the level.

There's one bug with this that I still haven't been able to figure out: when you first Fast Travel into the map from outside, you'll wind up in the bank area as if the Fast Travel station was still there. You can then do a quick in-level Fast Travel to get where you want to be, at least. Perhaps eventually I'll figure out how to get around that problem.

Regardless, there are three variants:

• Courtyard - Moves the Fast Travel to the promenade level, just outside the entrance to the main Atlas HQ building. The New-U machine which is ordinarily to the right when entering the building has been moved over to the bank. That New-U spawns you pretty far away from the machine, when you resurrect -- nearly outside the bank, even.
• Elevator Base - Swaps with the New-U station at the base of the main Atlas HQ elevator.
• Rhys' Office - Swaps with the New-U station in Rhys' Office.

v1.0.1 - May 8, 2021

• Move FT icon to the proper place when viewing the map from other locations (though the icon disappears when you're actually in Atlas HQ).
• Also made a note about the initial-fast-travelling issue; apparently I'd not noticed that until now. Perhaps the April patch changed something? Unlikely; I probably just missed it.

v1.0.0 - Mar 15, 2021

• Initial release
