Matrixing to a player ship should be the absolute best case with a 5 system jump distance, so a passive thing should not be better than that.
Ooo, I like this concept.
Would be interesting if Police IDs could be notified via TLAGSNET if a jump beacon is deployed in House Space, and the responsible individual behind it.
Alternatively (or perhaps in addition to?), a destructible jump beacon could tell you which player deployed it, when targeted and infocard checked.
Althouugh... There's an argument to be made against name-labeling jump beacons. Namely, that it potentially discourages player encounters within house space.
In any case, it would give locals a reason to patrol for and dismantle unauthorized beacons (or even take advantage of them), while encouraging their defense in the case of pre-authorized beacons!
