New pirate scanner idea

[Deeceem]

That's exactly the point - pirates would see navy guys from long range away and escape, to pirate eslewhere. They wouldn't fall to lawful gank as they do now.

An attempt to take BS scanner away from traders resulted in such big QQ, "because so many people invested cash into that", that it was merely nerfed to 75%. 5kers will use BS scanner even at 1%, because they don't want powercore for guns, they care only to deliver cargo, and what's better friend in that than ultra-long range scanner?

It still doesn't make sense to me. On one side you say it is bad to have a scanner to avoid interaction easily as a trader and on the other side you say it is okay to have a scanner to avoid interaction as a pirate.

If you want traders to be "punishable" for trading by pirates then why shouldn't pirates be "punishable" for pirating by lawfuls?

I don't get the logic behind that, sorry even if I reread your posts twice. But hey, that's just me and I could get accustomed with every change so far, so why not this one. *shrugs*
