Smugglers Hold

[Kuzco]

I don't know if this has already been suggested, but I think they should add a smugglers cargo hold as an internal component. Have it be a cargo hold like normal, but with shielded panels designed to block scans or send out false readings of mundane cargo instead of what's really in there. Have the downside be that the extra shielding means there's less actual cargo space, making it impractical for honest traders.

Stations could still have a chance to scan through the hold and detect what's really there, so you can have improved versions, each better version giving more chance of getting through "customs" Scott free, but at the cost of more overall cargo space with each upgrade.

Thoughts?

Yeah. Similar ideas have been discussed. I happen to be fond of the idea I had in the last thread that i was in that someone had created about this; a cargo scanner jammer that increased the time it took for a scan to complete based on jammer power vs cargo tonnage.
