I've found its extremely quicker to just exit the craft by using Alt+E
for instance to get to a Shuttle fast
I'd launch a Shuttle give it the halt order then exit the CC
fly over to it and Enter the Shuttle
do whatever i need to do
then fly back dock Exit the CC and Re-Enter
Re-Entering puts you On station Immediately
also works much faster for deploying Mining Drones
I'd do the procedure as before to enter a Shuttle
use TacOps to set my Wave Points flying down, and returning takes you about a minute
and to get to the next Shuttle with the next Mining Drone
I'd use TacOps to launch the next Shuttle fly right over it Exit my Craft
and Re-Enter the next Shuttle blam set my New Wave Points and fly down
I find it works alot better then deploying the shuttles
to a Wave Point and have them Circle the Wave Point till the land which takes forever
I also found it very useful for getting those picky SOS ships that want to fly on a Z-Axis
Getting a Cargo Pod before a Transport
or even going and getting supplies
using a shuttle when no Enemies are around works wonder on speedy deliveries
