After a pilot bails out, target the ship and fly to within 40-50m of it. Access the ship's command console, piracy>claim ship.


I also think you can do it hitting "i" while the ship is targetted too.

You're asking the wrong person mate. That's a question for the lads/lasses that wrote the game. ;)

Sos

Post by Sirus5 » Wed, 14. Feb 07, 19:11

The SOS allows you to claim ships without having to spacewalk.

Opinion is divided on this one, some people say "Get out and Walk", others say it's much quicker.

When you have Induced someone to "Vacate" their ship, it belongs to noone until you enter it and reset the computer to obey you.. With the SOS, you can reset the computer from your ship without having to do that spacewalk. HOWEVER, you still have to be around 30m away.

When you have a vacant ship selected, press I and fly towards it, when you get to around 30m (VERY close), you will see the little icon "Claim" appear and you can then claim it.

I foudn it very useful in the Disrupter fab mission where you were not allowed to eject from your ship and I would have had tons of Yaki M4's and M5's sitting there all over the place which I had managed to render vacant.
