Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
After completing a Capture Base mission on Manufacturing Facility it is possible for the dropship to land on your Lance destroying your mechs and killing your pilots as the mission complete messages appear.

Steps to reproduce the issue
1) Choose Capture Base on Manufacturing Facility
2) Proceed through mission and capture Manufacturing facility
3) Proceed to fight enemy Lance on hill east of the Manufacturing Facility but south of the road
4) Destruction of last enemy mech will trigger dropship landing to assist with base capture and will do so without warning or landing indicators.

Thats not a bug - you were standing on the landing zone - should have seen red pips on ground when you moved there or a round raised concrete landing pad

That is not what I'm seeing. There is no extraction point in that mission as there is no extracting in it. The dropship shows up after you destroy the enemy Lance guarding the facility for narrative reasons of securing the base/retrieving goods from the manufacturing facility and not to pick up your Lance like most missions. I have done two of the Capture Base missions since the patch dropped and both played out where the dropship landed without warning and no indication of where it would land.

Secondly, even if that were happening, there is no previous indication of where the dropship will land and it destroying your mechs after completing the mission without any such indication creates a negative play experience.
