So I was about throwing Discovery Probe Scanners at moons. This one moon had an online pos guns and stuff. I was in a .4 system No aggression and + sec status. Only other person is local was docked at a station.
Well I threw a survey probe at the moon the pos was anchored at and before I knew the pos was shooting at me. Ship blapped I docked and reconfirmed the only person in local was still docked.
I thought towers couldn't attack neutrals due to sec status loss and last I check you get a sec hit for attacking neutrals in low sec still?
Did I miss something? |

Depends on POS settings. I've had blue POS blap me due to settings.

You can set towers to shoot anything that's not 'blue' or not +10 or neutral bad security status aggression timer or just about anything you adjust settings for.
Hi sec may have some limits, but .4 and below wouldn't. |

Thanks. I was under the impression that if under normal player v player interaction a sec status loss would occur a pos wouldn't do anything on it's own. Last I checked this mechanic was before crimewatch. Now a player controlling the guns would but the sec drop is or was transferred to the player shooting the gun or agressing with the pos.
Null sec would shoot on site because there is no sec status drop from the action.
I might just try it on SISI and see what happens. |

You can set a tower to shoot at anything reguardless of the sec level of the system.
Most people have towers in high sec set to only shoot war targets. Low and Null towers are usually set to shoot none blues.
The sec of a system doesn't restrict your POS settings but most people get a little miffed if CONCORD blows up your POS for shooting someone it shouldn't. |

I realize this is slightly off topic but is it possible to mine moons in .4 now? "PvE in EVE is a trap to turn you into PvP content, don't confuse it for actual gameplay." Lipbite |

More specifically, you're confusing high-sec with low/null. In hi-sec, a POS cannot shoot at you unless you are a war target. a POS gunner can't gun in high-sec either.
Low and Null sec are the same though and work a the others have described above. |

You can man the guns in high sec, I've defended a number of towers as gunner in high. |

Just mentioning, an unmanned POS will never pod someone. |

I thought so, but haven't been in a POS in HS for ages so I wasn't sure. Good to know you can still target snipe! PEWPEW BIG GUNS! The Artist Formerly Known As AC.-á The-áterminal end of the digestive system.-á |

Slightly OT, but if the unmanned pos gun shoots someone in 0.4 is there then no standings loss anywhere? If manned, would the gunner take a standings loss in that same situation?

FWIW:
A POS can do anything automatically that does not invoke a CONCORD response with the exception of podding you (NPC AIs never pod, afaik). So in lowsec, a POS will most assuredly blap you if it gets the chance. A bitter vet trying to start anew. |
