Shira noted his performance during the second phase. Close to perfect, though she was noting some increased stress levels. Completely natural. After all, this was totally new tech, nervousness was to be expected. From the cockpit cameras, she took a look at his face. Not much change of expression, professional as always. As the jumps proceeded, she noted the Dart's energy dropping at a more rapid pace in comparison to the single, long jumps. She checked a few more things and realized the drive was heating up steadily, and more energy was being diverted to cooling systems. Nothing to be alarmed about, but definitely a candidate for improvement. If the time interval was shorter, then it was likely the drive's heat would shoot up dramatically, making it harder to use in quick bursts. Mid to long range deployments were fine, but use in active combat would have to wait. The civilian applications, however, could start being designed for even now, if needed. There was still a fluctuation in efficiency that only seemed to pop up when she wasn't directly looking at it, almost as if the drive was taunting her.<br/><br/>Having her brain directly hooked up to as many sensors as she was, by the time Kaz even finished swearing, Shira was analyzing the severity and path of the storm, and when he was asking for her to pull him back in, she had a set of coordinates ready to go, already on his HUD. They were all done taking the path of the different asteroids into mind, optimized for pilot safety and efficiency. The path was a total zig-zag, but there wasn't an exact straight line to get him out of this. Opening the hangar shielding to allow the mech back onto the zero-g rails would mean risking asteroids being let in. They had to wait for an opening of some sort, and until then Kaz would have to be jumping around. Shira also ran a full estimation algorithm on the path, and linked that over as well, letting the drive dynamically update it's jump coordinates as needed. She had already sent a signal to the hangar to pull it's shield down on schedule. Around her, the room was tense, but everyone remained mostly calm. Shira felt almost...disconnected from the life-threatening situation. And why wouldn't she be? Shira wasn't in the mech itself, yet felt like she was in full control.<br/><br/>As soon as Kaz had finished speaking, she was already giving him his answer.<br/><br/>"Pilot Markin, you are to jump to the coordinates show on your HUD, they will update as needed. No deviation whatsoever. An opening into the hangar should be available in about 23 seconds counting."
