Greetings!
Installed Oolite a couple of weeks back, as I had fond memories of playing Elite at a friends house on his 64 in the late 80s. Glad the game remains much as I remember it! One of the better "hey, that looks familiar.." moments in recent history.
Anyhow, in my travels I've come across a few derelict ships. Clearly I cannot scoop up a Python or similar with my Cobra (yes, I have tried).. it seems a shame that I appear to have no other option than to leave it or destroy it. The intact ship is considerably more valuable than a ton of alloy and the chance at some cargo, or so I would believe having ogled some on the showroom floor.
Are there any options / OXPs that allow for towing these vessels? The scavenger in me would appreciate it!

Re: Dead/derelict ships
Hi crochambeau,
and welcome to this great game and the friendliest board this side of Reiedquat.
Yes, there is. You need Deep Space Dredger OXP to slavage ships, although I gather it's not as straighforward as you may like. It's not an OXP I use myself.
The full list of OXPs can be found here on the wiki, and mine are also listed in the link in my sig.
Happy hunting.
