FLHook based ingame bounty system

[Montezuma/Kukulcan]

I see Montezuma in Omega 3.
/addbounty Montezuma
Log off
Log on a merc fighter go for Montezuma

wouldn't this be abused too? Like oorp hate

Well, if you put a 1 mil bounty on Montezuma, as you do so, 1 mil will be deducted from your wallet, which you'll get back when you kill him, so you're not actually profiting by killing ships you bounty yourself.

As for the PvP side of it, yes it means you'd be able to bounty Montezuma then run over to Omega 3 and kill him to claim it, but as things stand, you'd be able to do that anyway, as blanket bounties already mean you can engage just about any pirate (or lawful, depending on your affiliation) just about anywhere. What it would change though is instead of having to then log off, upload pics of the kill and make a forum post, then wait a few days for your payment, you'd just kill him and get the money right away.

And keep in mind, this mechanic wouldn't change the rules about reps and player conduct. You still have to be hostile to anyone you shoot, or you're risking a sanction.
