Instant Interdiction after hyperspace?

[Connolly91]

Just getting back into doing Robigo runs and every single one of my past 5 runs have ended in disaster. As I emerge from hyperspace into the target system I am immediately interdicted, and I mean, before I even have control of my ship following the loading screen. More often than not this leads to an interdiction submission as I zero my throttle. I then always get scanned, despite boosting away and deploying hardpoints with the scanner targeted.


Am I missing something here? Is this a bug, or an intended feature as there seems to be no way of fighting this particular interdiction?

In b4 "smuggling is supposed to be hard" comments...

This is not hard, it's annoying.

Seriously, this needs to be dealt with, I don't mind being hounded by squadrons of bounty hunters from one side of the bubble to the other, requiring me to dodge, duck, weave and pull out every trick int he book to avoid interdiction and scans, but the insta-interdiction on drop out... It needs to stop.

I take it this is a known thing then. I'm the same as you, I think smuggling should be difficult, but making it impossible to do based on what seems to be a RNG feature feels very cheap. I smuggle instead of trade because I like the element of danger and having to fight interdicitons and scans, but it's simply not fun if there is no fighting chance.

Yup, been around ever since I have done Robigo. I've never been scanned, personally, but getting interdicted the instant I drop in to a new system multiple times gets boring very quickly. I can understand dropping out of warp in front of another ship "once or twice" a month, but not 5 times in a row.

Anyway, you need to shoot and hit the ship scanning you to stop the scan. You may get a wanted tag, but it beats losing the potential credits...

Or FA off, spin, FA on, boost, boost boost right past them, by the time they turn around, you'll be beyond the 1km scan range (which, for the record, I'd like to see adjusted to a range that matches our own scanner range, because, that WOULD be hard, and not just annoying).

I hate these insta-dictions.

But usually if I get that on hyperspace exit, it goes all haywire, and I crash in to the star. But the persuer doesn't follow me. Which is handy, cos of the longer cooldown.
I keep my weaposn ready though, just in case! Lol

Other than that, I have no issues with the relentless spamming of security and pirates(and annoying NPCs) if I stack 50,000,000 missions. Lol
