There is a proper scale for larger ships. The bigger the ship and the harder the mission, the more value that ship has when it dies.

We tested this quite a bit at all levels and determined the numbers were a good starting point. As the thread says, we can tweak things further during live testing depending on what we see come out of it, though we are to some extent relying on players to cooperate and help us out with this.

interesting
will try out some of these changes when i have the time, haven't done npc missions in over a year

I actually got excited for this. But it seems it is broken right now. Tried taking missions from Cali Base, Tau-23 against GMS and then IMG. Both times no NPC spawn when I reach the objective.

Also do you get bounty money for killing NPCs outside of missions? Is there any message telling you how much you got paid?

P.S. You also can't abort the mission, hehe.

Every NPC kill is rewarded with a payout, yeah.
I think the plugin is offline right now to fix a few things that don't work like they did during testing, normally it would tell you something like
"X Credits have been added to your bounty pool."

Now, if it can only be done so that attacking NPC snubs dont flip your capital ship, perhaps with solution i have proposed, when snub crash in capital, they die,not bounce him...
