NPC communication/interaction

Would it be possible to insert the ability to communicate with NPC-ships. I mean predefined messages from which you can choose. i.e. : "Drop me x tons of cargo or i annihilate you." and then the NPC meassueres ship strength and with a defined percentage he tries to run or drops cargo etc. thats onlyy one example you can also say to an npc that he should go away or sth like that. I think that would add more to the game different PvE playstyles. and probably also to PvP. Imagine an NPC bountyhunter/pirate who joins your wing and helps you with your cause so you can hunt gankers/ pirate traders together. maybe with percentage deals that you can define in your invitation-message ( also predefined)

I've been asking for some basic communication with NPC's for a while.

Being able to make demands, requests, ask questions, and give responses.

I mean, you can demand an NPC drops their haul, or you can respond when an NPC demands you drop your haul.
Each getting a different response based on a load of criteria, such as rank, reputation, security rating, ship, cargo, wings, etc.

You can even use the predefined messages on players, instead of typing it.

Win/win.

I like this idea for NPC piracy a lot. The reaction of the NPC maybe coult take into account the notority of the pilot, since we will get that introduced in chapter 1 of beyond.
