So recently I've been making some credits by hitting the pirates that attack resource extraction sites right next to this really nice high tech station with all kinds of fancy mods and such, and I'm making pretty great money. However, I keep running into this intermittent problem.
My current setup is a Cobra with two class 2 gimbaled multi cannons and two class 1 gimbaled beam lasers. So I spend a significant amount of time with constant fire between myself and whichever ship I'm shooting at, and what has happened literally 6 times in the last two hours is invariably one of the many local security forces ships which are hovering around and generally doing jack diddly will fly through my line of fire (or behind the target and getting hit by some missed shots) resulting in me immediately getting a 470 credit bounty. Now while I don't mind paying that, what bothers me is the 4 Eagles 2 Vipers and 1 Anaconda that I suddenly have firing every laser, cannon, and missile they have up my tailpipe as I desperately divert power and spam the boost button to get away where I have to spend another 10 minutes flying to the nearby station and paying off my 720 credit fine for "attempted murder" of some drunk security force pilot who happened to not see the 20 meter wide stream of laser and cannonfire that happened to be right in the direction he was flying.
Couldn't perhaps they make it where NPC security forces only take lethal action when you have a bounty so high? perhaps 5,000cr?
