I just had an idea that was so amusing that I had to throw it together. Taking the 7ame program as a base I created a ransom enemy ship harasser. The idea of broadcasting the worst of the future net's junk to troll the enemy to get them to attack you just cracked me up.

Maybe I should make this an intermittent script that triggers while installed and active.

Maybe in the future I should create a dependable beacon that would ping ships in it's range to send them my way as a means to peel defenders off of a station.

If I wanted to make the opposite, would canceling the shiporders result in them going away?

You could always do ShpCancelOrders then ShpOrder 'gate.

I did this : " almost-like " : leeet me peek for my orders : This was for Specific Ships for after you paid debts : Most Molotoks do not carry the Bounty Hunter attribute : always double check the attributes of ships if they are the target and edit as required.( the first is for paying Nelaedra Lavalle : the second is for Lord Mikho : this is from Stars and Sovereigns. )

Code: Select all

(setq intTaikonPaid (lambda Nil
				; Find any Avengers hunting player
				(block (targets)
					(setq targets (sysFindObject gSource "sN:100; +taikonAvenger;"))
					(enum targets target
						(block Nil
							(shpCancelOrders target)
							(shpOrderGate target)
							)
						)
						
						)))

Code: Select all

(setq intLordMikhoPaid (lambda Nil
				; Find any Molotok hunting player
				(block (targets)
					(setq targets (sysFindObject gSource "sN:100; +bountyHunter;"))
					(enum targets target
						(block Nil
							(shpCancelOrders target)
							(shpOrderGate target)
							)
						)
						
						)))
I also had the player attacked with using ROMS , Disabled the ship if they took my Uranium Armor out of STK .....
