I can just see the grief storm brewing... How about this instead?Actually, thinking more on the explosive collars, maybe a net-gun (like the one from Running man) instead?
- If successfully shot you're transported to a nearby ship which uses a unique type of undeathinator and / or a specially setup transporter where you will be kept as a prisoner for say... 24 hours?
In that time you would be unable to suicide / spawn back to your base (or maybe lose everything on you if you did - server config options perhaps).
While captive, you do not generate FP and cannot control your fleets etc. This would allow for interrogation / negotiation of a release deal etc.
Probably more to think on with this, but i need coffee.
- Get shot by ship-mounted weapons and reach 0% health and you die.
- Get shot by personal weapons and reach 0% health and you become "stunned" for 5 minutes and drop whatever weapons/items you had in your hotbar (you keep the rest; including the torch, if not equipped... ). Your captor can physically move you to a prison cell, transporter, etc. but must do so before you recover and use your suit's fabricator to break out of your restraints. "Imprisonment" occurs when you are surrounded on all six sides by solid physical blocks while stunned.
- If he succeeds in taking you to prison, you can either try to break out or respawn at your base; forfeiting all your individually earned faction points for that day to your captor. You will have the option to "rescue" yourself to regain those lost points.
- Also, skip the light saber and make the fabricator act as a melee weapon for when you are unarmed.
Your thoughts gentlemen?
