System override software

I understand what the name implies but what does it let you override. I've tried to get close to ships and it didn't work there and if didn't work on a ship i wouldn't think it would work on anyting else. Anyway i'm just curious about it since there isn't any discription in the manual. Thanks for you help.

As far as i know it just gives you a better chance to cap the ship. You still have to attack it and go through the normal caping motions.

It'll only work on ships without a pilot. You'll see them on the sector map listed as "Nova" rather than "Argon Nova" (for example).

It won't do squat on a ship with someone at the wheel.

Also, I think they have short range too, <500m (if memory serves).

The system overide software allows you to 'claim' ships without having to get out of your own ship first.

It doesn't affect your chances to cap the ship at all.

But be warned- it is considered 'illegal' so if someone does a scan on your ship, they will attack you (and your rep will suffer) just as if you had spaceweed or spacefuel. (I personally would think 'cargo life support' more of a questionable item than a ship claimer tool but...)

I got tired of that, and removed it. There's a script for it, but I don't fool with scripts.

Mk2 via script is not detectable, and allows a cliam up to 5km away.

I did. Its called the X3 Handbook.

The only problem is that in making it, one cannot automatically get people to use it.

It also costs just south of 7mil too. Which is fair, imo.

I saved up for it and made it my first major purchase. Never regretted it.

The side effect of loading the script is that you can run the script stand alone as well, until you can actually by the software.

The softwares biggest asset is the 1 button press to claim.
