RE: New scanners and docking during battle [summoning admin(s) to clear this up?] - Haste - 11-10-2013
Slip away, restock, oops a Battleship scanner spotted you while you couldn't even see it, PvP dead, game over.
That's what the thread's about, Max.

What about.docking on a.nearby ship with.docking module for repair? Does that.count as pvp death?

Got me thinking again !!!
A word from those who know about it would be appreciable.
Because, I can't fight while THINKING

Don't care and continue as usual.
If you leave a battle just RP a bit it and check YOUR scanners (make a ss if you want) shortly before docking.

Well,it's simple. Return the old rule:
Pilot who runs away from the battle more than 14km is considered as a death.
Running from the battle,refilling and re-engaging was not a good idea in my opinion.I never liked it.

But most scanners can't see more then 10K now....and the running away makes you dead thing is just silly in my opinion...but who here cares what I think? >_> xD

Silly imo. Maybe make it if you dock with in the same system you are PvP dead? And make docking messages system wide via FL-Hook.
This will solve the Tau problem of IMG running to refil at Java when fighting OCs around Cali, or OCs running to Cali while fighting IMG around Java and other similar scenarios.
Problem solved.

And you sure, that docking messages depend on your scanner range?

That would be simple.
No b/b at all?
Or I decide to play a dedicaded communist Corsair fighting for the rights of the miners while holding up the virtue of honour with a (little) addiction to spirits which make him immune to the jellies' mind tricks which (who) get curious about the behaviour of this human who loves fluffy bunnies.

Great work in figuring this out - Kudos!
