Outpost Fast Travel Markers

VERSION 2 UPDATE The invisible mat will now show an arrow as you place it to allow you to properly position and orient it. The arrow disappears after the mat is placed, and will re-appear when you select it again to move it, see the video for an example. When invisible, it can be located by using your hand scanner. If you would like the arrow to be always visible for the invisible mat, there's a setting for that in Gameplay Options.
DESCRIPTION These are buildable mats that give you an additional map marker for fast travel. As the outpost beacon can't easily be placed inside most habs, this allows you to place another marker that's somewhere more convenient. In particular I was thinking of the new elevated cabin, this will allow you to place a mat (for example) in the bedroom, or next to wherever you have containers, so you don't have to waste time going through the airlock when visiting your outposts.
There are 4 choices of material for the regular mats so you can hopefully pick something that fits with your decor, and also one invisible mat. The visible mats have arrows to indicate the direction you'll face when traveling to them, see the screenshots. These mats are generally only usable at outposts, not player homes unless there's a buildable area that's not in an internal cell, like the player home in Dazra.

The mats are labeled A to E in case you need to use more than one on a single planet tile, and you'll find them in a list in the miscellaneous tab of the builder.
This is from my "xtcrefugee's miscellaneous small mods" collection on Nexus Mods, and has been tested on Starfield 1.16.236.0 (the Free Lanes update).
