Proposal: ID changes for 4.87

[Rodnas]

As for the limiting on the Pirate ID again - yes of course only allowing cargo piracy is radical and probably too much for the update( i still think it would improve gamplay drastically though if extended to all piate factions, so maybe the community could think on this at a later stage) - the limitation on only allowing them to open demands on tradeships would at least restrict it from issuing demands to the military, police, value-less targets and so on...why oh why should a pirate out for riches do suicidal stuff or stuff not worth his fuel, he probably doesn't have a big agenda like a real faction, otherwise he would be part of a big faction, not an independent pirate or smallscale gang.

Unrelated to to IDs in general, the available gear for independent pirates in combination with all other advantages makes it just too good

As for the ZOIs, we already have rules on which systems belong to which house, i guess it would be no problem to add a line which systems are considered bordering independent systems to that to further iron out where ZOIs end. Picking up the "should Hessians raid Gamma" homesystem raid discussion, my opinion-oh wonder- is no. Rheinland needs Hessian activity, not Omicron Gamma, Iota or Mu -even the war in the Omegas is lorewise only there because it is the Hessian backdoor to sneak in their supplies. Hessians don't even have a homesystem to counterraid- so as is they are at quite an advantage here...

War should happen in Warzones and as people are lazy as hell, forcing them by defining clear cut ZOIs seems a quick and clean solution for that, homesystem raids are just ridiculous and lulzy. For fairness sake the same could be done to the Corsais and the Casts, too - if you cut their Omicrons access to reach Eta only(and get the best missions there, too) then this system might actually start to fill a role, too....
