do i get less bounty for shooting pirates when i'm a fugitive
myself than if i were clean?
i was shooting a pack of pirates and i noticed the rewards were
very low. sometimes as low as 3. i remember getting 50 or even
more. that was when i could still use my docking computer.

I suspect I may have introduced a problem where bounties for abandoned vessels are greatly reduced (x1/10). I'll work on a fix.

Personally, I like the money. My preference is to scoop the escape pod, then come about and destroy the unmanned ship to scoop as much of his cargo as I can hold.

I like blasting the escape pod! Does that make be a bad person?
(Well I'd rather leave room to scoop 10Kg of platinum than 20Cr.s worth of slaves.)
Please slow your engines and do not attempt to dodge our lasers, criminal!
Yeah, right!

I meant: I dont really care about the _bounty_ money. When I scoopt that
container and it says '19kg of Platinum'.. .._that's_ the real bounty.
@ Dilbert: Yes. Shooting escape capsules is bad karma.
