You can use the electric zipline trolley and controller to teleport the engineer. Here's how you do it. Have a zipline trolley with zipline controller as your selected weapon. Be on foot, not hanging from a zipline. Go into map view. Scroll map view so that a power pole far from you is close to the center of the screen. Hover the mouse on that power pole then press the Use zipline shortcut. The engineer is now hanging on that power pole with their zipline trolley. Press the use zipline shortcut again to dismount.

I think this is unintended behavior, the Use zipline shortcut should allow mounting onto a pole if it's close to the player, not if it's close to the center of the screen.

I just tried this in a test world and I was not able to teleport from remote view the way you described. Were you in a special mode like in the editor?

I have made a video here, I hope the quality is good enough, also Renai crashes when attempting to "teleport" to a different surface, a screenshot of the message is included in the imgur album:

Not sure what to say, my game just doesn't do this when I try lol. Can you upload your save file somewhere so I can try it myself?

I found the issue, I had made some changes to the code on my computer that didn't match up with the release version at the time and in those changes I had fixed the crash already lol. Sorry for the confusion, the fix is in the newest version
