New Item : Safety Lock Scanner

[scimon]

The safety lock scanner can be bought in most stations, it fits in an external non weapon hardpoint and is slaved to the ships sensors and weapons.

If one of your weapons is about to hit a non Nostile non Wanted ship then the scanner disabled the weapon.

The length of disabling would varie based on the Quality of the scanner. Higher quality ones have the shortest time.

Now if another pilot gets between you and a legitimate bounty you won't end up incurring a fine for shotting innocents.

Thoughts?

 

[Kastor]

Huh, I though you were going to suggest a scanner that turns of friendly fire bounties, but this is actually way cooler, actually stops you from hitting ships in the first place.

 

[Bennet]

Very cool Idea!

It would work to inhibit firing if there was a problem but it wouldn't help if a projectile in flight hit someone who got in its way.

 

[scimon]

Good point.
