Oh god I hate NPC's with unlimited cargo hold!

[Tenacity]

Can I ask a *hugely* stupid question?
Why not kill him an take it back, then worry about fixing rep later, when you're not a few hundred mil down?

I was formerly know as Spiritar.

It's been a while.

Heck no! D'ye think I hung around with -that- in my hold? Hightailed it to Beaumont an' found me a buyer! Gonna live out the rest o' me life sippin' pina coladas out on Curacao. Thanks for the break kid!

... funniness aside, dropping cargo to space is at your own risk. The junker CSVs have 500 cargo space available to them, so they can nick that armor if they're empty. Any NPC will try to pick up any floating cargo if they have space for it. Bats, bots, ammo, cargo, and yes, ship equipment.

Wide awake in a world that sleeps, enduring thoughts, enduring scenes. The knowledge of what is yet to come.
From a time when all seems lost, from a dead man to a world, without restraint, unafraid and free.

And, as far as I know, the equipment does not drop if you kill them..

It's even funnier when they circle around said items but have no tractor beam with which to pick them up.

There was a sig here, once.

I tried to, but the ship I changed to was a slow Slave Liner, I had to turn the ship around before I could CD him, and by that time Rod was long gone with my stuff.

If it's not mounted equipment (something they picked up in space) it'll drop when they pop.

There's ships that do that? Kindly report that to the bugs thread, that's a loadout issue that needs fixing. Could be a lag-inducing glitch that.
