This would make it easier to get into the Aurora and onto the islands without needing to enter Reaper infested waters (the Floating Island is the only one without Reapers, but it has Warpers instead).
Plus, it is more realistic that way and it was in the original concept art.

How's this?
Imagine it in a real-life submarine. Most of the time, the openings are found at the top of the sub, I'll give you that. But what you've forgetting is that it only opens when the sub is either at the surface or out of water; in any way, if it opened while it was underwater, guess what would gush straight inside the sub and kill anyone inside(?)
That's something that has always bugged me with bases too, idk if letting people build hatches on the roof of bases is a good idea. I mean, the water would still gush in if it was on the side, but we could let that be for gameplay purposes.
aye, its the only reason the moonpool doesn't work for the cyclops, also some military submarines have airlocks to let people out when submerged as well as the dry hatch used when surfaced
the cyclops needs a dry hatch or a top hatch used when the sub is fully surfaced on the surface or in the precursor moonpool
which brings up the question of what happened to precursor vehicles sense the had a moonpool and they had to get around to build their stuff in the first place
the only reason i disagreed is because that art looks like it goes to one of the larger submarines that was abandoned as their is a corridor to ether another room or theirs an airlock on the side
Do a Google image search for "submarine hatch" - notice anything? The hatches are SPECIFICALLY designed so that water pressure makes opening them impossible underwater.
Besides, even the lower hatch SHOULD flood the Cyclops if you open it even a little deep. The hatches are obviously all magic anyway.
Skip to 3:05:
But I do love the idea of standing atop my submarines (to like, get into a dingy boat **wink**wink**)
Maybe if the Cyclops get its "docking" it could be from the top as well ? (it would after all, lead where there is the most place and still allow to drop the carried vehicle.
+1 for a roof docking hatch (maybe not usable when undocked)
