Salvager is now a Gunboat

[worldstrider]

only if you die, flee, dock, leave system, etc. while conducting trade. yes

Err--that's the opposite of what I meant. If I used a salvager to attack and get killed, I will remain bound by the four hour no return-no reengage rule with the player(s) I engaged. At the end of that four hours, I can then return to full trader status so long as I don't resume attacking again. I also assume during the four hours that other players not involved in the previous combat must treat me as a trader unless I attack them.
