With it being so difficult to find a perfectly flat area to land, will we eventually be able to grab and ull ourselves up to a landing ramp or elevator pad that may not fully reach the ground on uneven terrain?

So not currently, because this would basically be mantling. We have a vaulting and mantling system, being able to jump up and over things or jump up onto things. But currently everything is manually set up, so we've got a lot of manual markup. Something that we do want to look into is procedural markup for vaulting and mantling. So the scenario that you've just described, basically, if the height requirement for the surface that you want to jump onto, so the lift, is high enough to justify having to mantle up onto it, then in the scenario where we have the procedural markup, you'd be able to do so. If it's low enough, obviously, you can just jump onto it. That's something that would hopefully be covered with this procedural method.
