Question on claiming sectors through mods

[Heroguy293]

I use mods like Property Baron, and Lazcorp Claim sector, and i was wondering... is it possible to peacefully claim a sector without the race that owns the sector going gonzo on me? Meaning if i were to buy all the existing stations in Argon prime, and then claim the sector, would it be possible to claim it without the Argons becoming hostile? i mean even through mods, is there any methods to claim it without the owners becoming hostile?

Yes. Run a script command to change sector ownership from one to another. It's just the things the mods make you do to get to that point that makes the race hostile. Though job and station spawns tend to get a little wonky if you don't have an "overwatch" script running on a sector that's changed hands.

Thanks! i am now the owner of every station in argon prime, plus argon prime itself... and No one is trying to murder me. Fantastic! tyvm!

Hi, I am trying to do the same thing. manually changing sector ownership to myself. I found a script by apricotslice, i know it is the "r" to run the script in the editor. But i am lost when i try to run it. It says select a ship or station, i did that and the only thing that came up was no arguments.
Am i doing something wrong?

I am stuck. Looked through all the script options in the script editor but i can't find the lines i need after the argument part. :/

Here is that script. The download link will die quickly so get it now. Just run it from the script editor.
