7 years ago I feel like teleporters would be a bit too hand wavey because people will wonder why they cannot just teleport anywhere then. I also don't quite like the idea of removing rockets from the station <=> planet transport, though what if you could build infrastructure on a planet such as a space elevator to transport back and forth between the ground and station?
Then there's a reason why you can't just use it to go anywhere and would require moderate resource investment, however it won't take as much time as a rocket or require fuel.
Dacincis Vessels is more of a framework to make moving ship from what I understand so I'm not really sure how I could go about adding compatibility for it because it looks like it works in a similar manner to AR's rockets already but just lets the player move them around in more directions than up/down.
I do not currently plan on implementing any combat system for AR. I've been talking with DarkCow, the developer of ICBM and we'd both like to add compat for AR's stations and ICBM's missile systems. Though at least for now AR is mostly about peaceful(ish) space exploration and combat is beyond the scope of the mod. Due to the limited amount of time I have to develop AR plus other projects I don't really have time to expand the scope of AR at this time. If I do eventually get time and get #11 implemented then craft mounted lasters may become a thing.
That being said I'll slate the teleporter idea for the content update, though likely in the form of a space elevator if there are no objections.

I was thinking that it is a bit impractical to have to take a rocket every time you want to explore a planet from your ship, could it be possible to add in Star Trek-like transporters to "Beam" down to the surface of planets? Also, would it be in any remote way possible to make spaceships compatible with mods such as Dacincis Vessels? Finally, as a side idea, maybe lasers, to fight with friends in space!? Anyways, Great mod, Keep it up!!!
