Can flipping: Difference between revisions

Line 9:

Why do people can flip? The easy answer is to make money off AFK miners. But this is rarely the case. Most can flippers are attempting to get you to fire on them. How, well by stealing from your jetcan you have kill rights on them, but as soon as you fire on them they have kill rights right back on you. Why are they attempting to get you to fire on them? Because they (and most probably some of their friends) want to make you lose your ship. And even if you do destroy the ship that is harassing you, they '''''will''''' come back with something much more powerful.

Note that if you have combat drones in space set to aggressive behaviour, they ~~may~~ engage someone who flips your can on their own initiative~~. This will flag you to the canflipper and allow them to kill you~~. You can find the drone behaviour options in the drone settings window, which you can open by clicking on the white triangle in the top left of the drone control window when you're in space.
