I really don't understand interdictor ranges

[Sentenza]

Sometimes, I can interdict a ship half a system away.

Sometimes, like a few minutes ago, I'm so close behind that damned ship that I'm almost rear-ending it, yet it's still "out of range". How does it work :S

 

[Poseidal]

Depends on the gravity of surrounding bodies, but I don't know the exact rules.

 

[dreadlord]

I find i can play days without one, other days get 5 in a row, most of them i can get out of with a t6 though.

 

[worldoflard]

Yes it's odd. Doesn't even seem to relate to relative ship sizes as far as I can tell.

Yeah I was wondering this too. I figured it had to do with the size or signature of the ship or something.
