About this mod

Adds ability for the player to capture crew from escape pods by scanning them within 300m.

Permissions and credits
I wanted to play a game start where I am hated by all factions. Since people on stations refuse to talk to me, I had to make this mod to build a pirate empire.

I've been using this for about 100hrs now with no issues.

Features
  • Ability to scan escape pods to capture crew. Enter scan mode (default Shift + 2) and scan the pod when you are within 300m (default Shift + F while in scan mode)
  • Reputation will decrease slightly.
  • Notification report and log entry will be generated.
  • Pod engines have been powered up to help balance this change. You might need a faster ship to catch up with pods now. 350 m/s


Bugs
  • Assigning a prisoner as the captain, then attempting to comm the next one in the list seemed to end up getting me the captains number. Workaround: assign the captain last. Pretty sure this is a vanilla bug with the prisoner menu, some list not getting updated on captain assignment.

Recommended Mods
  • Getting paid (crew should get paid, even under impressment)
  • Better piracy (harrass option, your own ai pirate fleets, and more)
  • Enhanced bailing (npc's bail when fighting each other)
  • War Pact (You can align your rep with a chosen pirate faction. You can enable the pirate cover system for your player ship + direct fleet subordinates)
  • HeadHunter (Bounty system, so you can go hunting)
