Bounty Hunting System: Difference between revisions

Line 8:

The old system only paid bounties upon pod destruction. The new system consider destroying the target's ship and pod as 2 separate events, each granting a bounty reward. The ship's value includes any lost modules. For pod destruction, the target's [[implant]] value is also included in the value destroyed.

The new bounty system only pays a portion of the bounty at a time. The amount awarded is ''at most a percentage of the target's value loss''. e.g. blowing up a battleship (more expensive ship) with a 100 million bounty target inside will grant a larger reward than if that same target was in a shuttle (less expensive ship).

The new bounty system only pays a portion of the bounty at a time. The amount awarded is ''at most a percentage of the target's value loss''. The reward is 20% of the target's value loss or whatever is left in the bounty pool, if it is less than 20%. e.g. blowing up a battleship (more expensive ship) with a 100 million bounty target inside will grant a larger reward than if that same target was in a shuttle (less expensive ship).

~~The reward is 20% of the target's value loss or whatever is left in the bounty pool, if it is less than 20%~~.

Bounties do not affect the [[Timers|timer]] or [[Security status|security status]] mechanics. If a target (without a suspect or criminal flag) has a 100 million bounty and is sitting in a shuttle in high security space, shooting the shuttle will get you killed by [[CONCORD]]. Since a shuttle is an inexpensive ship, you're not likely to receive a large reward.
