Why do you leave us wanting like this?
The PP rank 5 won't happen for me, but 20% still helps, and I think I see the trick now. I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
Agree completely, 100% with this. It needs to happen.
Yep.

I ran away from Hudson space when I became aware of this a long time ago and haven't looked back.
It was also the time I saw PP for what it truly is, and that just one big merit grind to get mass amounts of credits.
I'm sure they get it to work better in the future at some point.

What trick are you seeing? Because I'm only about 80-85% sure I know what his trick is.
If it's an exploit, report it.
Holding up a candied apple to the forums and saying "I found a way to abuse game mechanics" is a sure fire way for commanders to relish the opportunity to abuse it, then Frontier will spoil the fun, and remove it (potentially busting legitimate income at the same time). Because that hasn't happened in the history of ever, before.
Report it. If it's considered legit by frontier, share the love; then folks can enjoy the windfall, before frontier apply an update to remove the scenario that creates unexpected stacking effects.

loooks to me as if; also including letting the pirate wings fight about your dropped cargo and "kill-steal".
Yeah, I think what you can do is get the pirates wings to fight each other and he can tag them all before they die.
I haven't tried it but it can work like that in other areas of the game.

I tried something akin to that once. But unless I did sufficient damage to the target it didn't count, so merely 'pinging' them is/was not an option.
Setting aside the doubts over the bounties claimed I suppose this may be of interest to PP'ers or those considering pledging but for me I have never pledged and don't want to put that particular yoke about my neck. I can do a 1-3 mil in a hazres during a session flying a Vulture with low rebuy costs and have enough patience to let it rack up slowly.
If it's like that then I suppose we have time to KWS all of them while they fight each other.
I guess wait for shields down or low hull and go finish the target.
I'm assuming the AI wings don't switch target to the player and keep fighting each other.
And as someone has said, maybe drop gold for them to fight over.
I can only assume what he has done is increased the volume of bounties received in the same time period.
Be interesting to know because this looks like a smart tactic the OP may have uncovered rather than anything exploitive.
I have found that in other area's of the game that if you play as intended or find the hidden mechanic FD put in, we can earn the same credits compared to the power gamers.
How do you work that out? He supports law and order, and doesn't allow slave trading etc. He sends extra cops to protect you in his space too.Ah yes I see the bug.
You pledged to hudson... Happens sometimes I think it changes your ethics moral to -100
Hudson = Fed. That should explain it all. He's as corrupt piece of junk as corrupt can go - just like all the Feds. If you support Feds, you're as good as dead (= you're but an insignificant piece of junk in their machinery) - go Alliance or Empire.

He's corrupt alright, but so are all the others. It's a bit like what the guy in the film "Brewsters Millions" said in his campaign "Vote for none of the above", "Why would anybody spend millions on a campaign to get a job that only pays 60,000. There's got to be something crooked going on". They're all in it for themselves, which is why I don't mind taking a cut of their wealth by doing honest work. I play them all against each other to my own advantage. I've defected a few times. You should do the same.
Right, has anybody confirmed my methods by taking a couple of tons of gold to the HI RES, tagging an innocent ship to become wanted, and then cleaning up the swarm of easy high-paying targets?
