Lawful and Unlawful interdiction

[Snarfbuckle]

Is there any way we could change the way lawful interdictions work?

-Have the defense force ask you to follow his wake

-If you fail to comply his partner will interdict you

Why? Because the natural reaction to an interdiction is to escape and even if you comply you will take hull damage. You are also very likely to miss the tiny text message from the cops that it's ok they just want to pull you over.

Could we get some interdiction "pulse" effect similar to cops flashing their lights to tell us to pull over?

Do you take damage if you submit?

Hm? Never had damage from submitting, and system security always tells you on your comms to submit to the interdiction so you know its them and can submit (or not, if your a nasty boy ). To make sure you can always use select highest threat to see exactly who is interdicting you.

-Comms are hardly visible except from a TINY text window up in the corner in RED text on black background, we need something more visible.

-I have taken damage TWICE from submitting to interdictions and spinning like crazy.

-I hardly have time to look if it's a good or bad guy interdicting me as I am busy trying to get out of said interdiction (I am not into the habit of giving up ANY interdiction unless I have to.

I like the OP's suggestion as it would be more realistic police behaviour.

If you submit to interdiction, throttle to zero and and let them pull you down, you don't spin much and can boost away and jump to super cruise again before the interdictor can really do much.

Interdicting atm is pretty weird, I spin nauseously out of control after interdiction now, sure I should be thrown about but not to the point of being dizzy.

Submitting has a timer, about 5 seconds I think. If you kill your engines immediately after minigame start AND try to target blue circle, you won't spin. If you start to resist and unable to hit that timer, you'll lose control.

If you are spinning it means you lost the interdiction before the submission was complete

"I am not going to look and not going to submit" are issues created yourself

I mean if you never look at who is interdicting you, you are ignoring a tool provided, saying you don't get that info, then asking for more info on who is interdicting you.
